Hi Stacey

Welcome and congratulations on your op and weight loss so far. I had my op 11 weeks ago now and my weight loss has been varied from week to week. One week I can lose nothing the next I can lose 5lb

Keep persevering and I am sure the weight will come off (well it has to lol)

By the way, Im from Manchester too

Welcome from me too. I understand that weight loss can be a bit erratic from time to time. Make sure you are drinking enough water as this sometimes helps

LOL I've never heard anyone's honeymoon period be over in less than a month so I reckon you'll be ok

Seriously your body is still in a state of shock and doesn't know its ass from it's elbow right now. It is perfectly normal and nearly all of us have felt the very same way a couple of weeks in. You've done brilliantly so far and just need to give your body time to heal and get over the surgery and the weight loss will kick in again soon.

Stay off the scales for a few days, and weigh yourself maybe once a week at first and trust me the pounds will drop off soon. Make sure your hydrated properly and you'll be fine x

Hi Stacey and Welcome. You will have weeks with no loss and remember your body is recovering from surgery.

Hi Stacey

I had my surgery on 21/05/2011.
My weight loss is still erratic even now.
In the last 3 weeks for 2 of the weeks I lost 1lb then last week I lost 5! Try not to worry about it
