Well - this has been a journey!!! I plateaued for over 3 weeks but this week a shift has occurred and I have now shifted 3 stone - I think about 11lb was pre-op and the rest fell off quickly post-op then the horrid non weight loss period - which is pretty down heartening I can tell you!
I am an offender - I eat virtually nothing all day then eat my tea when in from work then may try something else a couple of hours before bed - yes I know it's not what I should be doing but it's how I was before the Op and realistically it is unlikely to change - no wonder then you may say, that I struggle with the loss. Like we all say - the Op is a tool and it does not change your mental attitude towards food (at least not for some time). AT least everything I eat is healthy & home cooked so that is a start.
And I have to keep remembering, the less you have to lose, the slower you lose. I started at 17.2 stone ( at 5'9") and weighed in at 14.2 this morning....have gone down a couple of trousers sizes, my bra's are baggy, have lost my love handles & my chins and have dropped a shoe size already!!!! Couple more stone to go and I am back in training...BRING IT ON!!!!!
Note to those who are despondant or fed up with slow loss - stick at it - all bodies are different and it WILL happen!
