I've decided to try only weighing in once a week on Wednesday. Day to day was too hard.

I have been in a stall for way over a month.It's really piss

ing me off. I lost allot the fist month but nothing hardly since real food. I'm keeping the journal, trying to stay away from anything too carby. I'm stuck at 60 lbs down which is where I always got stuck even when I did it on my own. Which is starting to make me get those old feelings again...You know the why am I bothering feeling. That and I tried working out this past week and strained my back(it doesn't take much) and I can't even take ibuprofen or aleves. Tylenol does nothing for my back and on my good meds I can't drive on so I can only take them at night. It's annoying but I'm still fighting. I hate the taste of Water since surgery. But I still fight. And found out I still cant deal with tuna. So I have feeling lousy ate it this afternoon. Try again next month. Sorry I'm Debby Downer today but I just had to let it go

Don't feel alone I was at stall for weeks and I'm still only down 30 lbs . I'm having the hardest time , nothing seems to be going down and I just keep feeling "blah" as the days go by I feel like I'm getting more and more depressed. I feel like I Want to step down at my job and just focus on my health bc every day I'm sick. I'm getting in my liquids but I kno I'm not getting in enough Protein . I stopped working out bc I have no energy. Some days I can eat a little bit other days nothing. I'm about 9 weeks out now . Is anybody else going through this ? Any advice

[purrfctangel 239]

Yes! I lost 8lbs on the prediet and 28lbs in the 8 weeks since. I'm 1/3 of my goal but this is where i always got stuck. I can eat anything which really pisses me off. I wanted to get sick if I ate something bad. Was walking some but major back pain, just read my preop xrays last week and found at least one of the screws in my spine is broken. Going for full xrays and bone scan this week. Frustrating! I have an appointment with a nutritionist but not till July.

@@purrfctangel our situations mirror each others! I seriously can eat ANYTHING!!! I hate it!! My restrictions s are super slow to react, so it feels like I can get In a lot of food before it actually restricts! I'm stuck at 200 exactly right now. Before surgery I was at 227 on surgery day I was at 222 and am now at 200. I hope that I start getting restrictions sooner and am able to get a handle on it cause it is really discouraging! GL!!

[purrfctangel 239]

@@Loss78 I was 233 at my highest, 225 morning of surgery and 198 as of Wed. I did figure out that i need to be eating more dense food. My menu is usually Protein Shakes, chili, yogurt, scallops, tuna, Soup. I find that chicken, some rice, heavier foods do fill me more. I also have a nutritionist appt but not till July.

I feel for u I am in exactly the same boat! I am 67lb down and stuck!! Joining a gym today but I dunno if it will work! Got awful hayfever but only things that work knock me out and I have 3 kids to deal with all day! I used to love fish, now I eat it and I want to vomit, chicken makes me feel like it's stuck and I haven't even tried lamb, only thing that seems to be sort of ok is mince, but even that is horrible, I am in the UK so things are bit different here

[kyrickchick64 468]

Okay y'all had a Dr appt Friday and I'm down 11 lbs. Hang in there! Keep doing everything we're told. That stall was really depressing! But it will pass! Thank you all for being so supportive. Misery loves company but don't give in to the "why bothers"

I'm sitting at 41 lost so far so proud of us!!

[moored 62]

I've lost 48.8 from my heaviest weight and 24 pounds since surgery. I'm so close to 50 lbs down I can taste it!

[ladycook9713 442]

I've lost 76.6 since my highest. And 63.6 since March 11th.

I've dropped 2 sizes in pants.

I lost a bunch at the beginning but has tapered off and I'm losing at a regular rate now 1-2 lbs a week. I did have an almost 3 week stall and then all of a sudden I dropped 10lbs in a week. So it made up for it!
