Happy to report that with the help of your advice (all of you lovelies who replied to my thread), I have lost 3 lbs. Therefore, breaking my plateau. I’m so excited!! Thank you!

Hello!!! I was sleeved on September 26th. I’m 9 months post op and I’ve hit a hard plateau. My doctor expects me to lose another 25 lbs by the end of September and I’ve been at this same weight since May. I’ve tracked my foot hypervigiliently and have been great about vitamins and protein. I could improve on getting more water and I’m working on that. I work out an hour a day and sometimes 2 hours a day, 5-6 days a week. My workouts are predominately cardio mixed with some strength training. Any advice on how to break this plateau???? Thank you for your help!

I’ve been using my fitness pal and tracking macros. My carb intake was moderate. I am trying to lay off since carbs bloat me. I’ve also noticed that I’m able to eat much more than those earlier months post surgery. Is that normal? I’m always afraid that I’ve stretched it out and “ruined” my surgery.

I’ve been forced into taking an exercise break since my new job started this week. I’m a special education teacher and am teaching summer school, so I was forced out of my zone of focusing only on exercise and diet. I’ve started doing morning yoga for about 15 minutes. I will be going back to the cardio/strength training classes this next week but will only be able to go 3 days a week. I have a goal of hiking summits this summer, so that will be my weekend exercise. We’ll see where the scale goes and this new chapter begins. For now, I’m just enjoying the weekend.

Yes, I meant food. Lol
