Does anyone else find that you don't lose for a while, then you're down like 2-3 lbs one day. This has happened to me lately. I've only lost 16# in the last month, I know I should not be complaining but I'm a slave to that damn scale!

I can TOTALLY relate. Im like 3 1/2 months out, and the 1st month i lost 23 lbs, the second only 9, and the 3rd like 17....and now since 8/5 ive only lost 1 lb....last month it seemed like everytime i got on the scale i was down a pound or 2....now im blaming the scale...as if its BROKE...lol! I think its like a roller coaster ride...a lot of ups and downs!!!

That happens to us all. But keep the faith that the scale will move again. Don't focus so much on just pounds remember the inches are coming off as well. I have lost 69 pounds since I started my journey on the second week of January. I feel I should be further ahead but I am not. But yet I am thankful for those pounds gone. Keep smiling and keep knowing your journey is still on the right path.

I only weigh in once a week and I tend to loose that way too... some weeks only 1 or 2 pounds... some weeks 4 or 6 pounds. Overall, I am still loosing 10 to 13 pounds a month since the 3 month post op point. I havent really stalled and my surgeon has told me that the weight loss will slow down at some point and a stall will happen. I try to get all my protein, vits and meals in but it rarely happens. I would probally loss the weight faster if I drank more protein... everyday I tell myself tomorrow I will get in 3 shakes.... then tomorrow comes and goes.

Good luck and keep up with the good work!
