Annoyed with my weight loss

I wake up one weight go to sleep higher .

Pretty much every human weighs more at night. It is totally normal to stall, but waking up one weight and going to bed another is 100% normal for everyone - with or without WLS.

I just met my 30 pound mark at 5 weeks out! You will get there slowly but definitely surely! Don’t focus on the scale so much.

I should also have said - 30# in a month is great. Focus on the big picture, not the day by day. When else have you lost over 7# a week?

Yeah morning is a much better time, that way you're not weighing,in the "Been on My Feet All,Day " Fluid. Makes your shoes tighter also.

I was sleeved on 3/18/19 . Pre op 263 and now 233 or 234 or 235 or 236 every morning it’s in between . I’m following my diet plan as suggested by my nutritionist and surgeon but it’s getting annoying . I wake up one weight go to sleep higher . I’ve been trying to walk as much as possible . Am I doing something wrong ?

DO NOT WIEHGH EVERY DAY. You can gain/lose 3-6lbs of Water weight over night. Weigh ion once a week and follow your plan exactly. you will see results.

Hey, you're doing awesome. I would suggest not to weight yourself everyday.. It's nos going to show any results. My doctor told me once a month. ( obviously I can't do that lol) but I see more results doing it once a week

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
