Just a vent about loss so far



Recommended Posts

Anyone stuck like me? 12/16 was my surgery date. I was 237. Today 1 have been stuck at 170 for almost 2 months. I know I need to exercise more and make better choices but I am feeling this is it... frustrated.

Don't get me wrong I feel great and happy where I am just have this feeling like this is it. Rationally I know that's not true. I know I can still lose but have this sad feeling like the honeymoon is over. Anyone else?

It is frustrating. But you have answered your own question. Exercise and diet are at least as important, and in the long term more so than surgery. I am in a mini stall right now, and working hard to make sure it isn't longer. But this stuff happens when it happens. We can only keep doing what we know we need to do and wait for it.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
