willow13 59 Posted June 19, 2014 Glad to hear things are back on track hun. You know how I said I had gained a couple of weeks back well it turned out I wasnt eating eating enough either and my body had started storing. In this heat the last thing I have wanted to do is eat but I have been forcing myself and I have started loosing again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

luckyknickers 4 Posted July 31, 2014 OMG, just coming out of my stall........ I hope. Ten weeks post op, eight of those weeks stalling, what a long time. Saying that, I may not have been successful on the scales, ie STUCK, but the inches have been falling off. Gone down from a 30 to a 24!!!!!!! How's that...... This week I weighed myself, and YES.... I lost almost three kilos in a week. I'm feeling very pleased at this moment in time. I'm hoping that this is the end of my stall. I can't begin to tell you how low I was feeling, I was doing everything by the book, not cheating, but I know others were doubting me, but my bariatric specialist nurse said, yes, it was working as the inches were falling away. She was right, but I couldn't see it, then I turned a corner. Hurray, long may it last. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kimba6999 125 Posted July 31, 2014 Luckynickers: so exciting to hear that it is over. Unfortunately it will probly happen again. I am 7 months and just went thru a third stall but got through it. If u are exercising then its just ur body converting. Ur burning fat but building muscle so u will lose inches but muscles weighs more than fat so it just looks like ur not losing even though you are. Obviously you are cuz your pant sizes are dropping. It happens to us all. My first was at 6wks for 2 wks but i was dropping sizes. I was also working out like a mad woman, lol. So keep your chin up and just know this was a great step for you and your future. Keep up the good work!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
willow13 59 Posted July 31, 2014 I am glad to hear you are out of your stall. Well done on dropping the clothes sizes you must be really pleased with that.I am lucky I guess I had that one spell were I gained because I wasn't eating enough but as soon as I started eating again I started loosing again. I have never been the fastest looser but its been coming off without the stall (so far). I used to enjoy food but find myself struggling more and more to actually enjoy eating anything. I am still burping like its an olympic sport which is really disheartening and majorly annoying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kimba6999 125 Posted August 25, 2014 I am pleased too. Sorry to hear you struggle to enjoy food again. I hope you can move past that soon. I figured out that i was eating too few calories with my workouts. Had to up my calories from 8-900 to 1200 and boom i started dropping lbs again. Was funny to imagine that eating more was the key since i have always tried to eat less...lol. My current weight is 229. Getting closer to wonderland amd cant wait!! Took my younger kids roller skating for the first ever woth them and it was wonderful. I used to skate all the time when i was younger amd it was like i had never took a break. Got to teach my 12 yr old and it was so exciting amd wonderful. I could never had had that privilege without this surgery. I am so greatful! Keep moving forward and keep us updated. Hope the burping gets better soon. Has the doc said anything about it or why so much? I do but only when im full. My bodies way of telling me no more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
