Time to take control

 I've been feeling sorry for myself lately with this stall. Decided today I was gonna do something about it and stay on track. 4 grams away from protein goal and 30 ounces away from water goal plus I walked a mile. I'm gonna break through this stall and come out a winner! Determined!!

 Oops I ment 20 ounces away from water goal

When was your surgery? 29 lbs is a pretty good loss so far! Keep it going!

I'm having a lose-some, stick, lose-some, stick, kinda scale experience myself!

 Surgery on August 6th. 
Sw 258
Surgery date weight 242
Cw 229

 I'm only a week behind you, August 13. I know it's a little frustrating, as it is to me, too. I think the reason for frustration is we see so much "instant" success, that we want that, and we want it, well, instantly! I can't say I'm not disappointed when the scale doesn't move, but I'm trying to be patient and realistic. It's not a sprint, remember, it's a marathon. :)

Many people on this board list their highest weight as there starting weight... I listed the weight I was the day of surgery not preop,  so it can be discouraging when you think you are not losing that fast.  I lose, stall for several weeks, lose, stall again seems like the stalls go on forever.  Body adjustments.  It is hard cause there are people who lose 100 lbs in 6 months.... just try to look at your own progress.  I have lost inches.

 It's great that you are determined to work hard at this and not give up.....but please help yourself with obtaining realistic goals.  You are only 3 weeks out from your surgery.

Your loss for 3 weeks is admirable, stop focusing on the numbers so much.
