As you can see, the results are not good (at least to me). As you may recall, week 3 was when I started the puree diet. Well, it turns out that the puree diet has completely halted weight loss at this point. Talk about freaking out, I have been going crazy. For 10 days straight, the scale hasn't moved an inch. Very disheartening. I've read online from others who are post op that a stall around weeks 3-5 is quite common. But still, it's driving me insane. Granted, I was sick the first week of puree, my stomach seemed to hurt all the time. Now i'm much better, but yet the scale still isn't moving. I'm trying my best to get all my liquids and protein in. Plus i'm still @ the gym walking a lot as well.
Everyone tells me to wait it out, it will get better, but it's hard to accept that right now. After everything I went through, all the fear, then the surgery, the pain, the discomfort, the realization that I cannot eat whatever I want----to go through all of that, then to have the scale turn it's back on you so early in the process----man, it's enough to make you go crazy. I have seriously questioned why I even wanted to do this----but I have faith it will get better. Hopefully I will begin to see weight loss again this week. I just don't know if I can take another week of "0" pounds loss. I know my body is in shock, and that's why this is happening, but hell, my body needs to get the hell over it and start DROPPING THOSE POUNDS AGAIN!!!!+
