    Default New here!

    Hello all! I am new here, and have not yet taken the big step. I am in the 6 month pre-surgery period, and should schedule my surgery when I go back in 2 weeks! I am so excited. And scared. Really scared. But I know it is what I need to do! Anyway, I am down 35# since I decided to get healthy in June. But now I am stuck. PLATEAU....That horrible "diet" word! I am trying not to freak out though, my clothes are too big, and I am doing so much better in my exercise. It will come, that is what I keep telling myself. I didn't gain it overnight, so it won't go away overnight! Anyway, I am looking forward to learning all I can about this huge event that I am planning for....

    Thanks!
    Jolieslp!!!!

    Welcome and you're totally correct. You will stall after the 35 pounds (I'm surprised it wasn't before hand honestly) because your body has to catch up with your loss. In a way it's good that you're expriencing it now because it will happen at certain stages of your loss.
