I have hit that same plateau many times over the years- I found changing up my diet and exercise routines gets my body ready to lose more weight
Best of luck. Surely, you are so excited. Keep you eye on the prize.
I won't be but maybe a month behind you, probably by beginning of December. I have my preparation list ready for pre and post surgery, a crazy planner. Excited my next appointment to wrap up and send in all to insurance.
How much more do you need to lose? Use the OH Post-Op planner to see what your loss should be at this point. Make sure you are still following your plan. The further out we get, the easier it is to eat more. Be careful!!

It means your body is at the point where you are eating enough calories to maintain your current weight. To lose more you need to eat less and move more.

Thanks for your reply. Needless to say, I'm worried... but I'm glad you are feeling better.
Hi All:
Im post op a bit over 6mths and have lost over 85lbs. Issue I am having is that the past 3 weeks I have lost and gained the same 2 pounds continuously. I am hitting a Plato and not sure what to do. Its so frustrating.
My surgeon had a family emergency so my surgery was moved up. I had my Sleeve Friday the 4th. I'm not going to lie first 2-3 days are rough but I'm already feeling a lot better. Good luck to you on your journey.
Good luck with your surgery! It's good to see someone else new to the process. My sleeve surgery is scheduled for Oct. 22.
Good luck to you, Jen!
I'm having my sleeve surgery Oct. 22. Can you share a little of your experience with me?
It's a very common phenomenon for people who start exercise to gain weight, when we are led to believe the opposite.
Trackers lie about how many calories you burn and unless you are an ELITE athlete there is no reason to increase your calories or even eat back those calories "lost".
Exercise is for health, diet and calories are for weightloss
