Ive Been Same Weight Eight Weeks. Any Suggestions?



Recommended Posts

I've been same weight for eight weeks. Got a full two weeks ago, they said I'm fine and I'm rushing. But the scale isn't really moving. I'm working out, I changed my Protein Shakes for more Protein, less sugar. Can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.

I was the same weight for four weeks and I am only six weeks out from surgery. Just keep going and it's gonna start up again soon! I just lost 6 pounds! Yay! Make sure you're getting enough good calories, Fiber and fluids. Maybe you can switch around your exercise? Maybe try an elliptical instead of a treadmill? Are you doing strength training? So excited for my first fill on Tuesday! :)

shakes are sliders, you shouldn't still be drinking your food unless the Dr orders it.

I lost 12 lbs my first month and then nothing for the next 3 months. It's not unusual unless you're in the green zone already?

How many calories do you consume per day and how much are you exercising?

BTW-For those of you who are new here, it helps the rest of us if you fill out your profile so we know when you started and where you are in your journey. Also, adding the ticker is instructive.

I think exercise is key, so I say if you're not exercising then start,and if you are then change it up. Go to kickboxing or Zumba, or start doing some jogging intervals...anything different than what you're currently doing helps I think.

I think that is u are working out you could be building muscle. I bet the weight will come off soon.

Are you weighing protein? If not start. You'd be surprised how easy it is to underestimate how much you are eating.

Let me guess, I bet you are trying to get under 200 lbs. That happened to me. It took me 8 weeks to go from 202 to 199. Soooo speaking from experience I would just relax for few days no exercise and don't worry about food. Your body will "get confused" and you all of a sudden drop 4 or 5 lbs, when you kick it back into shape. Good luck. This is a long journey not a quick trip. The main thing is you will get there eventually. (Banded 8/12/06)

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
