Only 2lbs lost this week. Bummer :(

[SleevedRN]

Well, it's the end of week three and I only lost 2lbs. Has anyone else had that issue this early on? I'm walking daily and following my diet. So disappointed.

That's kinda what I average so keep ya head up!

You don't wanna lose to fast and have to roll your skin up and tuck it in your panties!!!

Congrats on the 30 pounds lost so far...that's awesome

Yes, its normal. Most people stall around weeks 2-4. I stalled at week 2, week 4 and week 8. Very frustrating. Just make sure you are gettins enough calories because too few calories can send your body into starvation mode and you will not lose. A 2lb weight loss is awesome!

glad you asked that sleevedrn. I'm at week 3 and felt the same frustration. Just got off my cycle on top of that and when I weighed last week it said I had gained 3 lbs. I about had a come apart. Everyone kept telling me it was probably fluid weight but still I was not a happy woman!

Two to three pounds a week is healthy and normal. Please don't get discouraged! Remember, this is a marathon, not a sprint! This is a lifestyle change! Hang in there. Slow and steady wins the race! You are doing great!

[SleevedRN]

I can only manage to get in 500-600 calories. Is that ok?

[Bec Bec]

same here. I average 400 to 500 a day and seem to be doing fine.

Realize that 2 lbs. is almost half a bag of sugar, and that's a lot! You're doing terrific!

Just think you lost a half a sack of taters you don't have to lug around anymore LOL.

Girl, 2 lbs is H U G E! What are you saying? Congrats!

[Watch out world]

Your only out three weeks and you have lost 30 lbs!! That is great! Remember you also went back to work. Are you getting in your water?

Keep up the great job!

I have read that around Week 3 many people have a stall as the body gets use to the surgery and new calorie restrictions stay on track and you will most Lilly have a big jump in a week or so.i would be happy to have a 30 lbs loss in the past it would take me a year to get that off only to regain it so have faith it will come off . Good luck

Wow I am so glad to see this post today - I am a month out and have lost 30 pounds as well - but that includes my pre-op weight loss. I guess I am going to be a slow loser - which is kind of depressing when looking at other sleevers big losses. But I have to remind myself that like Cndgins that I would never have lost 30 pounds in this time frame and it would have come back anyway. I have to try to be patient - but it is not my strong suit! I am also getting 500 to 600 calories in and meeting my water and protein goals - guess my body just doesn't want to let go! I DO need to get more exercise - so now that I've dusted off my treadmill - maybe that will get things going a bit faster. It is cold and dark here in Northern MN so I hate to walk outside for the most part. Going to try a belly dance class tonight - Hahaha! That will be interesting! Hang in there SleevedRN - you are doing GREAT!!!
