I am 2 weeks shy of my 6 month mark. I haven't lost any weight in the last 2 months. I just started exercising again...once it got cold I was totally unmotivated to exercise. Anyone else plateau? What can I do? What are you eating and how much?
-
Yes I totally stalled about 5 months out. But I didn't loose 100 lbs way to go! I had surgery 7/13/15 and down 63lbs. So I am doing the back on track regime. 4 Protein shakes plus dinner for 2 weeks. I need to reset. I also have no motivation to work out.

Ahead of schedule / losing too much?
francheskii replied to ashleybrady87's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Congratulations! What's your secret?! My surgery date was July 13, 2015. I was 218 and currently 159. I've completely stalled since December. I'm told I could be in maintenence phase but is that right being 7 months out?? -

Isopure and Syntrax are good! The fruit favor ones -

Getting sufficient calories?
francheskii replied to Daisee68's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm averaging about 800-900 calories. ...almost 7 months out. I'm having a hard time with 2 shakes per day. I always have 1....but hardly 2...I know this is important so you feel full -

6 months post op
francheskii replied to francheskii's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
From what everyone is saying I think that's exactly what I need to do. I have been afraid that I may eat too much. I just started tracking my calories and excercise. I hope this stall passes! Thanks for the feedbak -
So my surgery date was July 13 2015. I have lost 53lbs and have plateaued and haven't lost any weight in 2 months. I stopped exercising one of those months and I'm wondering if that's why I plateaued. Some suggested I may be in the maintenance phase. Is it too early for that? I'm eating 2 meals per day....high protein, 1 protein shake in the am, and a snack in the pm. Any advice or anyone else experiencing this?

6 months post op
francheskii replied to francheskii's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thanks everyone for your responses. I have an appointment next month. But I have been eating only 2 meals with 4 hours in between. So today I started with a scrambled eggs for breakfast and I am going to try and have smaller meals throughout the day...to be continued! -
Thank you! I have lost 55lbs and surgery date was 7/13/15.

I was out 5 weeks. Not only was I able to adjust to my new lifestyle, I was able to get a regular workout program going...which I need to get back on. -
Weight Loss Has Stalled WHY?
francheskii replied to CazzaM's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm in a similar boat. My surgery was in July and I was 218 lbs preop....currently 163 and have completely stalled. I wonder if it's because we weren't as heavy as some individuals. Absolutely no offense to anyone.. .my nut recommends 2 meals, 2 shakes, 1 snack if necessary per day. I also have been having a cocktail on the weekends whoops! Maybe that's why... -
So funny! All my new selfies show my thigh gap. Lol feels great. Thanks for sharing!
