Question:
Is it possible to lose 10 lbs in 1 week at 8 months post-op.

I had been on the plateau from he!! Last Thursday I weighed in at 235 but last night I stepped on the scale and it says I weigh 225. That puts my over the 100 lbs lost mark. It just seems too good to be true at this stage. I'm wondering if my scale is broken. I do plan to weigh myself on another scale, but I'll be really bummed out if it isn't true..    — Meredith A.

Yes! It is definitely possible. I'm just about 10 months post op and was on a terrible plateau. At 8 months, I suddently lost 10 pounds over about six days or so. Your body needs time to catch up, but that doesn't mean you aren't still "losing" even when the scale doesn't move! Congratulations on your 10 pounds, and keep hanging in there.

As I have come to find out, *anything* is possible with this surgery :)
