((((((HUGS))))))) Hang in there, you're doing fine. Your body needs to adjust, and your mind needs to adjust as well. You know very well that this isn't a magic wand that will have you wake up from the anesthesia with all the weight gone. The surgery is only the beginning. The surgery is like getting out all your tools and the materials you need, and all the healing and drinking and adjusting your eating is where you use your tools and work with the materials to make something, in this case your new life. Just as you need a plan when making a craft, your body needs to heal first before it can start doing what it needs to. Though the incisions on your skin may be closed, I think you can see that it is still a little red, and still weaker than the surrounding skin. It's the same on the inside, too, and the healing will take up to 3-4 months, so there's no need to stress out. Your body will do what it needs to at the speed that is best for you. Take things one day at a time, as you are doing quite well.

Try and not think about the stall, don't weigh yourself so much and you won't think about the stall! I hit a stall that lasted too long but I did not beat myself up about it, I started moving my butt and that helped to get things moving again. Roz
