Anyone else?

Has anyone hit a stall? I have been going up and down with 5 lbs. for over 2 months now. I have lost 150 lb. which I am thrilled about. I have about 30 lb. to go for my goal weight. Maybe I am just over anxious. Any suggestions! My husband has banned me from the scales. Janet 324.5/174.5/145

Janet, you sound like me. Have lost the same 5 pounds now for 3 months. I have lost 136 pounds so far and would like to lose at least 20 more, but... I guess if I am done here I will be happy. Rhonda 312/176/155?

Hi Janet!! I am going through the same thing. I am one year post op as of January 10, 2006 and have been battling with 3-5 pounds for the past 2 months. I want to lose another 20 pounds and it just won't budge!!! I workout at the gym and it seems fruitless. I'm having a TT on March 6, 2006 and I'm hoping to shed some weight at that time. You have done awesome with your weight loss!!!! Don't be discouraged, it will happen soon!!! Have a wonderful weekend and God Bless you and yours. Aloha, Pat

Hey, we have the same surgery date and Yes!!! I've hit a stall too! Maybe its the timing?? I've lost 166lbs so far and would like to take off another 12lbs, but I decided yesterday that if that doesn't happen, I'm not going to stress over it. I only weight myself once a week, but its sure a bummer on Sat mornings when the scale says the same darn number, LOL! Hope things pick back up for you soon! Tracy B 328/162/???

Thanks for the words of encouragement. I will just keep doing what I have been doing and focus on the exercise. It is nice to know I am not alone. I guess we lost so much so fast that these last few pounds are hanging on. Honestly I am thrilled with the 150 lb. that is gone forever! Have a great day! Janet

yep me too. Same 3-5 lbs up and down. Hopefully this stall will end.I want to lose 30 more. I have lost 146 so far.

Sounds like we all have the same story ... surgeon said weight loss occurs in the first 12 -18 months after surgery ... we STILL have 6mos of productive weight loss. I've lost the same 3-5 lbs as well. I have my TT this friday and doc says it should take off 10-12more pounds if that proves true ... anyone have a testimony?? then I'll be happy and done. It will put me at 102 loss - exactly what I was over weight as. So the rest would be unexpected. Remember - continue doing the right stuff!

I sure have! I am currently at a weight loss of 80 lbs and have stopped. I just have been very frustrated about it. I eat less, no help, I eat more, no help, I exercise, no help. What to do! hugss stacy

I hit a wall. Thought I was all alone. If standing on my head would help, I would do it. No words of wisdom here, just floating with you in the same boat. A big hug from me!
