I know you have had lots of answers---but heres mine---At six mths out I was minus 102---the very next day the scale went up 2 lbs---I was calm but the next day it went up 4 lbs---so 2 days and 6lbs later---I was heartbroke--I mean--dang I was not doing anything wrong--well it took almost a week but then they were gone---It was very frustrating--I just figured--dang---its one of those things we go through---now the lbs have been dropping this week--and I am real excited---but preparing again for another lull---WE will all get there one way or another--Yes---Salt is an evil but wonderful thing--My new addiction lately are pretzels---I love that sodium! Oh--now I am down 112.5----so to break it down---from 6 mth to 6 1/2 mth--i was up six pounds down six pounds--and lulling for 2 plus weeks--then boom--the last week and a half I have lost 10.5 lbs---go figure will ya!

Awww Nancy, I know where you're coming from. The biggest incentive of all to follow the program is see the numbers racing downhill! When that doesn't happen, sometime we (I know I do) develop the "what the heck" attitude. Cheers to getting back on track, surgery friend!

Thanks Michelle! We can drown our sorrows together and then kick our butts for it! Let's make a pact to stay on track. Thanks for relating.

Thanks Amy. It's comforting to know I'm not alone. I'm curious about your broken tool. Is it really physically not working or are you not working it? I know it's hard when you TRY sooo hard to be successful.
Hugs, Stacey

I feel the same way! Im eating things that I know I shouldn't, I have only lost 10 lbs in the last 3 months. I hope I dont become one of those that gains their weight back!! And like you all, I know what I should be doing but do you think I can kick this in gear! I dont want to sabotage my own progress either!!
HELP!!

Oh I am relieved to know Im not in the boat alone. No lets not give up!!! We will fight these evil pounds
. I was halfway ok with 3 pounds, but this morning it rose to 6 pounds, like it used to be before the surgery. I know my thought have been similar to yours, but lets keep up this fight and zap those evil pounds away. Keep me posted later on how it goes. I want an update next week. I hope this is just a phase. We will see.. Thanks for letting me know Im not alone.
Goot luck, and lets continue this fight, we can't give up now. We are halfway there!
Lots of love,
Jessica

I feel ya! I have been going up and down the same 3 lbs for almost 2 weeks now.
My weight loss has slowed down the last couple of months and I'm really depressed. It's especially p*ssing me off because I am exercising, eating right and drinking my water.
I'm so frustrated I could scream. Lately I've had evil thoughts like " I might as well eat that bag of cookies if I'm not going to lose weight anyway".
I know I need to be more positive and I am grateful for what I've lost, but I still have another 53 lbs to go.
I guess we need to hang in there.

Im right there with you Stacey,
I have been eating cookies when I know I shouldnt, having bread. Too many carbs. It is driving me nuts. I feel depressed. I lost my job last week to downsizing. I felt fat today for the first time in forever. I have got to get out of this damn funk soon. This is ridiculous. You are not alone my friend!
