2muchfun 8,927 Posted February 23, 2013 47 divided by 5 = over 9 lbs a month? What did you expect? 9 lbs a month is incredible? I'd love to have your results and most would. If you're in a plateau, how long at 230#? Plateau's are common and may last weeks or a few months. No reason to throw the towel in that I can see? tmf 3 ☠carolinagirl☠, Holly Dolly and DELETE THIS ACCOUNT! reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hely88 883 Posted February 23, 2013 I have a friend who was stuck and exercising. Even though she was exercising her doctor suggested her heart rate might not be getting high enough Maybe consider getting a heart rate montior to monitor your cardio. Polar makes a really good brand. Best of Luck! 3 2muchfun, DELETE THIS ACCOUNT! and ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
☠carolinagirl☠ 18,721 Posted February 23, 2013 giving up because you have lost 40 pounds?? and just because the scale is not moving doesnt not mean your band is also not working dont get into that drama...this (pause) will pass the only way it wont is if you start eating more cals than you burn off... you are rocking this...keep it going 3 Holly Dolly, 2muchfun and DELETE THIS ACCOUNT! reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Holly Dolly 575 Posted February 23, 2013 You said you are eating pretty healthy, but are you logging everything that you are eating? I am back to losing again now that I am keeping my calories around 1,000 a day. I weigh and measure everything that I eat. 3 2muchfun, ♥LovetheNewMe♥ and DELETE THIS ACCOUNT! reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
♥LovetheNewMe♥ 1,216 Posted February 23, 2013 I got stuck about 9-10 months post op also. I reached a weight some where in the 170"s and just sort of sat there with only losing a few pounds here and there for about 6 months. I know that is probably not what you wanted to hear but it happens, I about drove myself crazy trying to figure out what I was doing wrong or what I needed to do. I analyzed my food diaries and all I could see was I was always over in fat and carbohydrates and under in calories, below 1200 and sometimes below 1000. I talked with my nut. at the doctors office and she suggested I increase my Protein and increase my cardio from 3 days a week to 30 min daily. I did all of this and finally started losing again. The one thing that did happen to me was I lost inches when not losing weight. On the months I had a large weight lose I lost little inches and on the months I had a small weight loss I lost a lot of inches. Just have patience, I know that is hard to do some times when you want this so bad but patience pays off, believe me it did for me and I was not aways perfect and did allow my self an occasional splurge. Good luck! 1 2muchfun reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
