I am one month out from surgery and have been at the same weight for a week.....

Am I panicking too fast?  how do I get the weight to come off again?

 

UGH  hate being stuck

Relax, your body has been thorough a lot and will go through adjustments during this time of change. You may be holding water from your surgery yet or your metabolism may be going through an adjustment.

If I had a dollar for every post I have seen about this topic I would be a rich person. .

Enjoy the ride, you will be amazed at where you are at a year from now and think back to this time with a smile. Just remember, keep your protein up and your carbs low.

Yes, you are panicking for no reason.  Follow your surgeon's prescribed diet for your particular time frame, sip, walk, eat what you're supposed to.  Chill- sit back and enjoy the ride.....the weight will come off.

I am in the exact same place as you!!! 1 month and seeing the scale barely move is SO frustrating!!! I will send positive thoughts your way and you send some to me!!! I feel like I haven't done as well with water intake as I should so I am going to focus on that this week and see what happens...! Good luck!

As I am sure you know, hydration is so very important.  And the lack thereof can impede your weight loss.  Also, just remember that all liquids count toward your daily total....water, flavored water, tea, decaf coffee, etc. ....so get it where you can!  And you just feel better overall when well-hydrated.

Stay off the scale!  Focus on doing what you are supposed to be doing.  The weight will come off.  

Deep breaths. Get your protein and vitamins in.  Drink plenty of water.

 You will be fine.
