Feeling Pretty Good

[missranger 19]

I’ve been pretty discouraged by my lack of weight loss following gastric sleeve surgery. I’m just shy of being three weeks out and have only lost 9lbs despite following the program exactly as instructed. Took my measurements today and I have to say this lifted my spirits. I may only be down 9lbs but I’ve lost 27 inches total! Absolutely incredible. I’ve never been able to accomplish this before in my life with all the yo yo dieting I put myself through. If there’s anyone out there feeling disappointed with your journey, don’t give up hope! Thought I’d share and hopefully lift someone else’s spirits too.

Sometimes we need to stop looking at the scale and count the Non-Scale Victories. You're only 3 weeks out, give it some time. Expect a stall when transitioning from liquids to soft foods.

Amazing !! I’m getting better and better about not getting on the scale. It’s better for our overall health and well being to be positive and that 12x12 piece of whatever it’s made of robs me of that.

@Avery’s Mom I use an app called Baritastic to log my measurements & weight. You can add progress photos too!
