Help! I have stalled majorly!



Recommended Posts

check your Protein drinks. My doctor just told me he had a patient not loosing and it was because the Protein Drink she chose was really high calorie so she was taking in a lot of liquid calories. I thought I had been in a stall and have been very frustrated but went to the doctor today and have lost 12 lbs in a month. I had been so frustrated and was so excited because my scale was broke is why I thought I was in a stall.

I use the my net diary to track my food and it will let you put 1/3 or 1/2 and calculate it. If I can't get an exact amount I put something a little higher. Better to log more calories than less.

Try tracking your calories, Protein, and carbs? Since your loss has slowed to nothing, try going back to basics. Try something like the 5 day pouch test to get you back on track. The 5 Day Pouch Test is a 5-day eating plan that can help if you feel like your stomach isn't processing things right. It's basically like your post-op diet but crammed into 5 days. The link to the site that explains it is Surgical Weight Loss 5 Day Pouch Test

Basically it's 2 days of liquids (protein drinks, Soup, etc.), then a day of mushies (tuna salad, chicken salad, eggs, fish), then a day of firm Protein (seafood, ground meat) then a day of solid protein (chicken, steak, pork, lamb.) The guidelines are pretty simple and laid out on the site. Changing things up by getting back to basics may give you results.

I cobbled this together from Tiff and lotusflwr80 recommentdations. Best of luck, Les
