I think I broke my scale...

[TwoGoldens 0]

I think I broke my scale because it hasn't moved in 5 days.

I know it is a stall and I know my body is working itself out. It is just frustrating. I had hoped to be 8 pounds lighter today and I am not. Praying I can get through this stall and my body will keep up the hard work of losing weight.

Had my VSG on Aug 26 and so far, by my calculations, have lost almost 24 pounds.

Thanks for letting me vent.

My scale also went on vacation. Hard to lose 10 Lbs in 3 weeks. Then lost 3 lbs in 2 days

24lbs is an awesome loss!!! You should be very proud...it all happens in time just keep following your plan. I was sleeved 7/17 and I'm down 56lbs, I can tell you the lbs come off when they are good and ready too! Best of luck and stay positive.

(Funny joke.)

You're doing great.

Our bodies do their own thing.

And we have to do OUR own thing.

Eventually, we both get to the same place.

@@TwoGoldens give it time. you are what? 4 weeks post surgery? a stall at this time is normal. your body is adapting to its new lifestyle. stick to your plan and you will see that broken scale fix itself soon.

I have been stalled forever!! Got where I hate the scale! Received a letter from my cardiologist yesterday with my blood work....not enough Vitamins, thyroid is too low, ....etc. in other words I need a lot of adjustment. Maybe when all of this is straighten out I will start losing again and become friends with my scale again!

I Lol'd when I read your title because I thought yes indeed I have broken a set of scales or two in my time too (after all we are in the 200 pound + to lose section).

But it appears you did not mean that you literally broke them under your weight.

In addition to the scales that met their demise when I stood on them I have been given and then killed 3 mini stepper machines. I had to stop using my treadmill because once I exceeded 300 pounds because it started to rock from side to side !

PS My Dr's scale weighs me 4kg heavier without fail but he swears blind they are correct. Don't let me get started on the scales at the gym ...
