  1. Looou, i had my surgery on june 16th. i have stalls every months for about a week and then ill drop about 4 pounds. In july i was stuck for 2 weeks and even gained 2 pounds. My son who is a MMA fighter gave me a recipe for a protein shake. and that took care of the stall and i lost 6 pounds that month. Now keep in mind i have hypothyroidism that slows my metabolism down. Im just sharing what has worked for me. Hoping that it will help someone else. The recipe for the shake is a simple 1 banana, 1 cup strawberries, 2 scoops of protein (60g) 1 pack of benefiber, 1 cup of non fat milk and a cup of ice. i just mix all the ingredients in the blender. thats what i drink throughout the day. That gives you about 75 grams of protein. I do the elliptical 3x a week for 45 minutes. Oh and i do have a healthy dinner focusing on veggies, with either fish or chicken. I know how you feel. I too was so worried when i stopped losing. I thought this is it, i failed. My son said, basically my body went into the im starving mode and just wanted to hold on to everything.
  2. And i thought i want the only one experiencing, a plateau! so much to learn:)

  3. Hello all,

    Ive been looking around for a great support site and Bingo, here it is.

    I just turned 48 in July. Im excited about meeting others who have had the sleeve and am hoping i can inspire them as you all are inspiring me. Ive learned that having a testimony can be such a blessing to someone else that thinks they are alone.

    Thank you all for your inspiration :)

    If anyone has hit a plateu in their 9th week let me know if you did anything different to get back on track. Im really worried. the first month the weight just fell off. even the second month but going into my 9th week it just stopped. i even gained like 2 pounds. im now on week 11 and nothing is coming off.
