Your body is getting used to the drastic cut in calories. You are probably holding onto everything you eat. I was stuck at 16 pounds for 2 weeks! I know how you feel! Even though the scale number isn't going down, you are still losing inches. Don't worry! Keep at it. Don't weigh yourself every day. I know that's hard, but you'll go insane every time you don't see the scale move. Drink your water and follow your diet, goodluck!

Don't get discouraged. Remember this is a journey. It won't happen overnight. Stick with you recommended foods and keep walking. The more you can walk the better you'll feel. I had my surgery 6/16/09 just got on the scale Valentine Day and I made it, I've lost 100 lbs. yippee. I had RNY and and like anything you're body will sometimes loose the weight slowly and then another time it seems to be melting off. So give it a chance. And continue to challenge yourself to do more activity. Good Luck, Donna Holman
