I need some meal ideas. I am stuck and need to break my stall I have fallen back into some old habits but trying to get back. I know eating bread has not helped me. A friend of mine said she cant eat bread but not this girl- my new tummy doesn't seem to mind. One good thing is if I have too much sugar I get sick so that makes me not eat a lot. I am looking for some ideas. I love yogurt and I tend to eat that often for breakfast. I got burnt out on eggs a long time ago. I need to cut my carbs down. Anyone tried intermittent fasting? I am wondering if that would help break this stall. Stephanie

I just cant do protein shakes anymore, I got burnt out on them by having to drink so much of them before and after surgery. My doctor said they wanted me to get my protein from food vs shakes when I was released to eat anything.

Just wondering, I am at almost a year post surgery and I have been at a stall for months now. Has anyone not exercised much and still lost weight? Looking for menu ideas for day to day. I know I need to cut down on my carbs especially bread :-( I still cant eat much at one sitting and I do eat 4-5 times a day from yogurt to protein bars to protein filled meals. Do you eat red meat or did you make the switch to turkey and chicken only? I want to break this stall. I cant do protein drinks mainly because I got burnt out on them from pre surgery and post surgery. The banana one is the only one I can get down these days. I cant do the gym, I am looking into streaming the videos from beachbody.com. Just getting frustrated.

Any August Sleevers out there?

I am coming up on my 1 year surgery anniversary and I have been on a stall for months now. I know everyone is different and they lose at different rates. I am only down 40 pounds but it is because I have went back to a few bad habits and have not exercised like I should have been all along. I still get full real easily so I don't think I have stretched out my new stomach. I think it is just the food choices I make sometimes. I need to cut down on my carbs. I have thought about trying intermitten fasting to see if that would jumpstart my stall I am currently in. I would like to lose more before my 50th birthday in October. The one thing I miss the most is being able to gulp water, I miss that a lot. -
Breaking a Stall
Stephanie0614 replied to Stephanie0614's topic in Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty Forum
My taste buds have changed that's for sure. I was never a big fan of yogurt and now I love it and could eat it several times a day. I have experienced "dumping" and it is not fun. I know I need to cut out bread. two girls I know who gastric sleeve cant eat bread but not this girl. It doesn't seem to bother my new stomach :-( I cant eat too much sugar, it will make me nauseous which before I was a huge sugar addict. I just need to get off my lazy butt. I want at least another 10-15 off before the big 50 birthday in October.
