Everyones Scale stuck?
It must must be plateau time! I haven't lost any weight in 2+ weeks! I know hat I have lost inches by my clothes.
Guess we just have to wait it out.....
I am trying to exercise more but I think my body will just do what it wants in these first 6+ months.
I am going to see my nutritionist today. We will see what she has to say.

I hear ya! It's so frustrating! I have set mini goals for myself and at each one (35, 40, 45, 50, 55, and now 60 lbs lost), I get within a quarter of a lb and then I'll gain 1 or 2 lbs. Damn, it's annoying! I got to 59.7 lbs lost, then started gaining again, now it's only 58.9. I just can't seem to get over that hump. I know it will start, but I was so excited when I got to 59.7 and I thought "tomorrow, I'll be down over 60" ACK! Not to be, at least not yet.
I know, I know....throw the scale away. I've become a scale-oholic!

I had the same conversation with my sis last weekend. She was lapband June 1, I am RnY May 24. I drop 5 pounds almost overnight, then 2 of them come back and STAY for a week, sometimes two weeks. Then I drop 4 pounds from Saturday night to Sunday morning, only to find two of them back where they were on Monday before I leave for work!
My weight chart looks like a zig zag - tending down though. I've dropped 70 pounds and my BMI is down from 43.9 to 30. Like many, my sizes are dropping pretty consistently - about one size every two to three weeks lately - I started in a 26 - 28 and am now very comfortable in 16's. I am only 5'1" so 70 pounds made a huge difference.
I just keep eating my protein and vegies, taking my vitamins and calcium and drinking water like a fiend. I felt much reassured after talking with my sis though - I was ready to go buy another scale, thinking the one I have is broken. Turns out it's just a devious device of torture. So I do what Tooter does - I make it see me nekkid every morning!

No, my scale isn't really stuck...yet. Last week was expecting a "wash" week. Got to the morning of my weekly weigh in and the scale tossed me a bone of 1/2 lb. Oh boy!
Then over the weekend, dropped a couple of pounds and now a couple more and I'm down 4 thus far this week. We'll see what the scale says tomorrow in time for the official weigh in.
I'm shocked at the 4 lbs since it is PMS time... just ask Rich for confirmation of that. I was "irritable" yesterday. LOL! I told him that and we both laughed pretty hard. At least irritable, I can make fun of myself and my hormonally induced crabbiness.
I guess the 4 lbs makes up for the 1/2 lb last week, eh?
No complaints from me... for now, that is...
