Scale keeps bouncing. 204, 206, 203, 204, 207 OMG, 202, 204, 203.



Recommended Posts

Going on three weeks of this crap.

Please don't tell me to up my Protein or increase my exercise or cut my carbs or sell my soul to Satan.

I've already done all of these things. They don't matter. Sometimes you just get fecking STUCK for weeks and you suffer and glare at the scale and want to punch someone. It figures this would occur right before onederland. (shaking fist at the sky)

LOL.

Not looking for advice. Just wanted to complain openly so others experiencing this irritating reality don't feel alone.

To my brothers and sister in StuckVille....I feel your pain!

Ok I won’t tell you any of those things. I’ll tell you this in case your not doing it already. Cut out ALL liquid calories including shakes & drink nothing but Water. Maybe that’ll help if your not already doing so.

@creekimp13

The only thing I didn't do was sell my soul lol. [emoji23] I was in "stuckville" for about two weeks and it finally ended the other day. Yes, it sucks big time!! Especially when you are sooooooo close to a goal. We will live to see another day though...hopefully!

Seahawks...no worries! My point was...if you're stuck, too, you're not alone:)

My nutritionist assures me it's very common and that it's all about patience and remaining consistent.

Was just sayin....hey all you other stuck people....I feel your pain!

(I'm not really worried about it, just feeling kinda impatient)

I ain't got **** for advice to offer anyhow. But I can commiserate. I am sure you've done the whole "measure yourself" thing. How're you feeling otherwise?

Funny how it always happens around a major weight too. It’s like the scale knows!

I am having the same issue. How far out are you? I am just over 6 months and the scale keeps bouncing. It goes down and then it goes up and then it goes down and then it goes up. I too am sick of it.

Make sure to check the batteries in your scale if it has them. Mine were low and it was adding weight and not being consistent. I also discovered if its not in the same place on the floor it changes the reading high or low. Very annoying when it flips in a range of 4 lbs and you have no idea if you lost or gained!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
