Weightloss at a Glance!

Thursday, October 9, 2008

My first snag

They told us that about three weeks after surgery that our weight loss would slow or even seem to stop. It's basically our bodies entering starvation mode. I'm there, or at least I think I'm there. I've lost quite a bit of weight, but not seeing the scale move down, or even worse, seeing it go up a pound is a little frustrating. I don't write down my weight on those days, ha ha. I weigh myself every morning, and if my weight has stayed the same or gone up a pound, I don't write it on the calendar. But I do record weight loss! I have noticed, when I get a decent nights sleep, and I drink enough water that it does tend to go down every day, even if it's only a few ounces.

Anyway, I was wondering if anyone knew how long this lull in weight loss lasted. I'll have a good day and drop a couple pounds and then it goes up and down a pound, and then stays there for a day. I try not to focus on days where I don't lose anything, or days when I gain a pound. I know it's coming off, and fast! I've lost 25 pounds since my surgery, for a total of 36 pounds since I first saw my surgeon! It's amazing!

The other problem I'm having is I seem to be in between sizes now. All my old 22's are getting baggy and lose, but I still can't get any of my 20's up over my butt! Did anyone else have these issues? I guess it's time to invest in that belt now huh? My favorite pants are way too big, so I reckon it's about time to give them away, which is kinda exciting!

Anyway, that's where I stand now! I've lost 36 pounds, and I'm really excited about it. My Mom keeps telling me it's just gonna melt off me, and I have to say she's right. I had a friend, in Germany, that was a size 11 and kept going on about how fat she was. (I hate people like that, ha ha) I don't think you should be allowed to call yourself fat unless you wear plus size clothing, and even then it's debatable, lmao. Anyway, I used to grab my two biggest fat rolls and tell her, THAT was fat. I think that's where my 36 pounds have come from. I think I've lost a little bit in the waist, but I can't grab those fat rolls like I used to could! Which is FINE by me!

Alright, well that's my ramblings for the day, hope everyone enjoys their weekend! Sarah

The lulls in loss will continue and get worse. You'll go 2-3 weeks without dropping a lot. When I'd hit those, I'd boost up my protein. Boca burgers, carnation instant breakfast, stuff like that seemed to get me moving again. As far as clothes, good luck! I looked like a slob at times because my clothes were too big and I couldn't quite get into a smaller size or was just too cheap to buy new ones! Enjoy the "positive" problems you're having! Protein!!!

The time between the surgery and your first FILL is called: Bandster Hell. Aptly named.

Keep working and I agree keep your protein/water levels up.

You may not see the scale move much, but you should see other NSV's. [Non-scale victories.] Loose clothing and such. Make sure you count THOSE too!

I'm having the exact problem I have only lost 2lbs in 10 days and I'm starting to freak out. I know when my weight goes up I'm dehydrated, but I really want to loose faster. Oh well.

I noticed I would lose 7 to 9 pounds a month with pretty much two good weeks each month and 2 weeks where I was slow or gains each month too. It will come.

Sarah don't throw those old jeans away. Oh what a feeling in a year and you put them back on your butt. Keep um!

Goodwill! Second hand stores and Goodwill kept me dressed for months.
