What is going on?
Hi Everyone,
I will be 4 weeks post op on Monday and have lost 30 pounds so far...which is wonderful!!! The last week I have stayed the same- nothing is moving on the scale. I have been getting all my protein in and I am very close to my fluid intake. I have started walking and I am just getting frustrated. Please tell me that the scale will move and I am not just stuck here!!!!
What else can I do? Does anyone have any suggestions???
Please help!

Totally normal. A lot of people take their measurements during scale stalls since apparently you are still getting smaller even when the scale doesn't move. I just hunkered down and kept going, weighing in only on Mondays. it will eventually move!

screw the scale. all i want is to see my clothes get baggy, and for my bras to fit me again, and then NOT fit me again. baggy clothes! baggy clothes! (thank god i live a block away from a thrift shop to make my downsizing ever so economical!)
