I wish I knew myself. I’ve been holding at 319-320 for the past week and a half. However no immediate change in the diet and getting to the gym 4 days a week, 30-45 minutes of cardio each time. However I can’t lose an ounce. I’m hoping someone will have some good pointers for us.

A week and a half is a perfectly normal stall. Water weight can hide fat loss for a few weeks at a time on the outside. Drink plenty water and lay off the salt to help clear it.

Are you going to tell is what your eating. Can't suggest things to change not knowing what your doing.

Please at least tell me the power aid and Gatorade is sugar free? If not that could be your answer right there.

A lot of us find we can't lose if we don't limit our carbs. Are you following your plan? Meeting your Protein goals?

That is probably the issue.

Most of us can’t eat whatever we want and expect to lose weight rapidly.

You could be different but if I were to eat what I want I would have a croissant, fries and some pizza. Sure it would be a minute fraction of the quantities I ate before and perhaps so small that I could trick myself into some Weightloss Lite fantasy that I am actually doing this. But it’s unlikely that you are eating according to plan.

Track your food religiously for 3 days and see what your calories and macros are. I will bet money the problem is there.

And I got you don’t like water. But too bad. Acquire the taste. Artificially sweetened drinks do our body no favors. It’s hard but you can chose to do the hard work or be on the low end of the bell curve with VSG weightloss.

You can break this and it will be up to you.

Well eating whatever you want. And not tracking when your in a stall isn't going to help yourself. If you were having no issues not tracking is fine. But how can you find what the problem is if you can't even list what you ate ?

How can all you drink be those two things ? You need to replace them with Water and maybe crystal light. Those drinks in high quantities are not ideal. Your not supposed to drink them instead of water.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
