Getting p*****d off now!!

[jillyiant]

One whole week on soft food and lost nought not a bloody pound... only on 3rd week and they say it comes off to start. How can your body live on so little and not drop weight. Better pick up soon im the most impatient person ever.

You should read my diary hunni First two weeks were fab- third I gained. Fourth week the losses started again and then have been nice and steady since.

That's why I haven't weighed myself. It's so disheartening. I got weighed by my team at my 6 week check and haven't been on since. I've been doing measurements instead. I've lost 8.5" off my hips alone and I only had my op 11 1/2 weeks ago. It's great working out how many inches I've lost in total.

I have lost 5 inches off my waist thats good fr when the scales are stuck, ts hit me a little later last week was a stuck week.

Well iv just been sitting reading all the diaries and it seems a lot of us have a problem 3rd or 4th week, made me feel a lot better. Iv just found tinned peaches are yummy and go down a treat so im going to have a fruit day as not had much in the way of fruit lately. Heres to next week I suppose fingers crossed i will lose.

 

[lyzzyanne]

i have had a fair bit of fruit in milk smoothies and it helps with the loo as well!!

I remember waking up after the op and thinking "why aren't I thin?!". I didn't lose much at all for the first couple of weeks. In fact, I started getting very upset thinking the op hadn't worked and I'd gone through all that for nothing.....then, all of a sudden it just started dropping off. I guess we're all just different and our bodies react in different ways. Main thing is, though, not to get disheartened.

Don't worry I stalled for weeks. I found I wasn't eating enough!?! My team told me that my body thought it was starving so it shuts down to preserve what's left. Hence often your hir starts I fall out nails & skin go all horrible. My hair has started to shed so had it cut. Skin ok but nails break. Eating more now & weight loss resumed nicely. Good luck.
