scale better move or the toe gets it!

I tell you - it's been three weeks now since the scale has moved.... I am so crazy frustrated that if the scale doesn't move - I'm going to start lopping off body parts to compensate..... Okay - not really.... but agggggggggggggghhhhhhh. Tell the body to let go of the fat!!!! okay I'm done.

Ah, but how much does a toe weigh anyway? I think you'd have to go for the whole foot to make a real difference. Melinda

Hi Pam I am in the same boat as you and let me tell you I'm ready to chop off an arm or something . I have been stuck for the past week and a half now and it is very frustrating!! All I can say is, we need to hang on and be patient right? Susan LAP RNY 11/24/04 374/313/190

Patience! I was stuck for three and half weeks and it finally started moving again. Not to get too detailed but I felt like I always had to go to the bathroom. This was just two days ago. In the past two days I have dropped 5 lbs. My surgeon said my body is finally getting the message that I am not going to starve it.

I seem to only lose for two weeks out of the month. THE week and the week before I just don't lose a thing. And get this the other two weeks I only lose like 2-5 lbs. I hate it, but all I can do is keep on keeping on....

Sandra I am so with you I lose maybe 2 weeks out of a month. I have lost 46 lbs. errrgg I know that this great but I want more lol I am so selfish. \ I also had to write because I have family in Roswell. WE may be visiting this summer. My Uncle and aunt and cousins live there and now my grandpararents. Lets keep in touch maybe we can meet this summer if ya want. Brenda 325/310/264/153

Wow, Brenda and Sandra, SAME EXACT THING. THE WEEK AND THE WEEK BEFORE IS IT FOR ME for weight loss. I can count on it like clockwork. It is so RELIEVING to hear you both say that! I thought I was just weird! My week is coming up so I'm hoping the scale will do it's thing! Sincerely, Julie ps. do you think it's a metabolism thing or a water weight thing?

I am stuck also!! It is so frustrating. I am down 60 lbs so I just keep telling myself that it is gone forever. I am getting about 500 to 700 calories a day, and my BMR is supposed to be around 2000 so why is the weight not coming off? I think I have lost 10 lbs in a month. I go to the gym and usually just on the treadmill use up all the calories I have eaten up to that point. Well patience never was my strength. But we just have to remember that it will come off. Ok now I'm done too.
