muggzz 7 Posted July 22, 2016 I am 7 months out and finally broke the 200 mark- actually down to 191. !!! But the scale has not move at all this month...very FRUSTRATING ! I know the weight loss slows down but this can't be it ☹️ I work out with a trainer two days a week and try to walk a mile two other days, I am getting my Protein, taking my Vitamins and Calcium . I do admit I stopped counting how much Water I drink. But how do I kick thus back into gear and start dropping again? I will take any advise, criticism and help... I am just at a loss as to what to do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BackSpin81 350 Posted July 22, 2016 Onederland is still a goal for me. I was 13bs away... then 18... then 15... etc, etc. I'll get there one of these days. I haven't lost all hope (just a little though, to be honest). Ugh! Sent from my SM-G920P using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When you guys got to the lower 200's, did it seem like it took FOR-EV-ER for the scale to drop below 200?

Shadow427 272 Posted July 22, 2016 Never made it. But I'm 5 ft 11 inches and look and feel better than I ever have. I've lost 116 pounds. Am an athlete. And, accept that scale numbers should not control our emotions. Sent from my XT1080 using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pac-woman 325 Posted July 22, 2016 After 6 mths the weightloss slows down. Just change your exercise routine. Shock ur body, you will continue to lose whether its inches or 1 to 2 lbs a week. Enjoy the journey. I am 19 months out and still working hard. Sent from my SM-N920V using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pac-woman 325 Posted July 22, 2016 Weight training burns fat and builds muscle. Muscle weighs more than fat. Your scale number will mean something different at that point. Dont go by the number on the scale, go by how the clothes fits u. Sent from my SM-N920V using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
