I am almost 2 months out from RNY surgery.. and I've not lost in over a week... Yes I'm drinking and walking... but still not loosing.. Makes me wonder if I've made the rite decision on having the WLS now. Any advice?

Is this the first week you haven't lost anything? I went two weeks and only lost two lbs. It happens.

Your doing fine! Stalls and more stalls, part of the plan. There are some weeks where I haven't lost an ounce, then I will drop. Are you getting enough calories? I notice if I am below target calories the slower the weight loss, also how much are you exercising? You have to make sure you are fueling your body, how many proteins are you having? It will get better and you will be happy with your decision. Katrina

I'm trying the hardest to eat enough of calories...and walkin for exercise. This just scares me that I'm going into the 2nd week of not loosing.. and afraid that they surgery is not working for me.

I promise its working for you! Our mind plays all kinds of tricks on us, but you have to know that it will work, its pretty much IMPOSSIBLE not to work if you are doing what your Dr and nut says. ...... How many grams or protein are you getting? Calories? You will look back on this and say, gee, seems like just last month I was a hundred pounds heavier...... be positive! There are all kind of reasons for stalls, time of month, water retension, STRESS..... hang in there Charlotte!

Well, Guess I'm not really counting protein / calories.. Just mostly trying to concentrate on what I should/need to be eating for each meal.... Maybe not enough of calories or protein at that... Sometimes, I just don't really know what to eat.. or that's what my mind thinks......

39 pounds in 7 weeks..AWESOME! I have found with my research the more weight you have to lose the faster you lose, at first, then it evens out. A 39 pounds weight loss is more then a 5 pound a week average weight loss....I can't remember anytime in my prior yo-yo diet life of this ever happening. Keep up the good work! I had to have a revision (see profile) and the weight loss for me is SLOW......8 weeks Thursday and a weight loss of 20 pounds, I'm thrilled! I have to remind my self of the journey.....I know I will get to my destination. I have started using a tape measure and I can't believe the inches coming off! I will support any and everyone who would like me too, I started wearing a size 28/30, today this 46 years old woman is in a size 14/16! I will be at goal in the very near future, so if it can work for me it will work for you.... Katrina
