most of us seem to go through that same thing - you are normal, and your surgery will work if you follow the program.

right now your body is healing from surgery. which means sometimes during this period you may hold more Water in your system, and at other times you may let that Water go. you also may or may not be dealing with Constipation which will affect the scale.

the goal is not necessarily "weight" lost, but more specifically FAT loss, and that takes a little time.

so hang in there and keep doing what you're supposed to do.

@@Nibria56 You could look back almost 2 years ago and read almost the exact same post from me a few weeks out from my surgery. I was freaked out. But I did start losing steadily and I've maintained at goal for nearly a year now. Take a deep breath and trust the process. You will do great!

stalls are different every single time as your body is doing things inside that are not so apparent at the time. my first stall was a week - 10 days or so. the most recent one was almost 2 months. now the scale is slowly moving again. just trust that your body will loose weight if you are following your program, and when you stall check to make sure you haven't been letting food or inactivity sneak in.

Ditch the scale, eat as you were advised, and relax. We all had stalls. We sometimes think the fat will fly off overnight. It doesn't. Keep up the good work. It works!!!!!

Thank you. I just can't help myself and I've been feeling really down about it. If so petrified that this surgery won't work out for me. What then? I've been trying to hold it together but honestly I don't know how to take it. Sorry for being such a downer
