I know how you feel and please don't get discouraged this will be one of many stalls. I am 16 months out and lost so far a total of 117lbs and I still have stalls it's all part of the journey. Just keep up what your doing get your Water in and Protein it will start up again soon keep up with your exercise and also change it up. your doing awesome I hope all the best on your journey take care

Great work!!!!! Yay!!!!!!!

Just keep what your doing, are you keeping record of what you are eating? If so make sure your carb intake is always below 45grams a day and try increasing your Water intake. The upping of your excersise and protein fantastic keep it up eventually it will start again.

Is anyone else out there in the same boat??????? I'm so upset and kinda worried I'm 5 month out lost 60 lbs and the month of November was like a waste of a month no weight loss whatsoever. Just the same. Is this normal? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Fantastic, all the best on your way to ONEderland.

I know how you feel I was like that my surgery was June 28 2012 and I stalled within the first month and I was soooo upset I just cried because all I could think if is what's going on but I found this forum and its helped me too se that its all normal and part of the process just relax go with the flow continue to do what your doing and it will start again. I'm 7 months out and I'm at my third stall I've lost 80 lbs and 7 away from ONEderland just hang in there girl you'll make it. )))))

Hello anyone else having this, I had the flu two weeks ago and I'm not complaining or anything really I'm not but just curious, I can't eat like I used too. It seems like i am back where i was when i was three months out. I can't even drink a 8oz protein shake without being in full force tummy pain. And I'm almost six months out my calorie intake went from 750 back down to 400 on good days. I was just wondering if anyone has experienced this after they had gotten sick. Sincerely Linda

I know exactly how you feel, but from what I have learned here on the forums is it will happen it is normal. When I started this thread I was in a panic. I found that upping your exercise to more intense really helped quite a bit. So just keep doing what your doing follow all instructions given and you will get through this.

THANK you everyone, it really puts my mind at ease. I really appreciate it.

NO I asked the same question here as well I got that same response NOoooo it does expand your stomach we didn't all go threw this for nothing right? All the best on your journey. ))))

I love, live, breathe, my fitness pal. It's great. If anyone would like to add me as a friend I carry the same user name.

OMG!!!!!!!! YES yes a thousand time YES, I guess that where the terminology came from "food funeral" it feels like your at a food funeral every time you sit down to eat. I feel for you. I'm only 5 months out 19lbs away from being in ONEderland. I found more pleasure in cooking the food the eating it, but I more over enjoy it too see my family members enjoying my good food so I look at it that way and it kinda helps. I did this surgery for a reason so I think like this is something for something in order for me to be healthy for my family and for myself.

Welcome, and all the best on your journey. Keep the faith, it does get better. I am 5 months out lost 56 lbs and 19 lbs away from being in ONEderland. I can't stress it enough it does get better make sure you pay attention to your body telling you that your full. Keep in mind it will be a food funeral every time you sit down to eat BUT it is all worth it because we have to take ourselves back to the basics and reteach ourselves how to eat portion control and the 30 minute rule. No drinking 30 minutes before or after. You will feel angry at times but it just your bodies defence mechanism kicking in because mentally it thinks you need more food when you don't. That's why we are over weight in the first place. Some days are easier then others but you will get all the information and support from this forum. Take care and all the best.
