feeling frustrated, not loing weight...help!

I had my surgery on 8/06.... weighed 362.... went for checkup on 8/18 and weighed 343 but now since 8/21 my weight has been 347 , I figured the weight gain was water weight since I am drinking more water but the scale has been stuck here for 5 days now. I am feeling very frustrated and don't know if I am doing something wrong or just a plateu. I have been telling myself my body is just adjusting but everyday that I weigh I just want to cry. Has anyone else had this problem so early on post op? Thanks for your input and support!

Be patient hon... It's the only advice I have for you. The weight didn't come on over night, so it sure in the heck isn't going to come off that way either. I, personally, don't weight everyweek -- Only at my doctor appointments because I know her scale is correct. So hide that scale and keep thinking about other things such has... Clothings feeling getting looser. Feeling better about yourself. More energy. The fact your not eating a dozen cookies (or whatever) anymore... etc. etc. etc. Keep up the good work and keep drinking tha****er and getting the protein in. -Katie

Susann, I wish that there was something I could say that would make you go "aha" and cure your temporary plateau...but, we both know theres not, and all I can tell you is that we are here for you, and are ALL pulling for you. If you ever need anything, all you need to do is sing out...Hugs, Carol
