UGH!!! I finally hit a stall



Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

Well I have been losing pretty well now. I lost a lot of weight. I was sleeved on October 29,2010 and I have lost about 100lbs so far. Now I am stuck around 300lbs. I dont know what is going on. I am 5'11" and I have a large frame. My dr wants me at 150-160 lbs but I will be happy with 185-200 lbs. Of course I am on solids and I can eat more calories. I eat Breakfast, lunch and dinner. with maybe 2 Snacks. I try to get down some form of Protein. I exercise at least 1 time a day either riding my exercise bike for 30 mins or walking 3 miles (with my 6month old lab puppy). I cant get a budge. And this has been for about a month. I dont have a scale cause I dont want to be constantly weighing myself, I use the scale at my local doctors office. They let me come in and weigh myself every week. I just need advice on what to do to break this stall. I know if I can break it, the next 100 lbs will melt off. So anyone have any advice, please HELP!!!

I'm in the same boat girl, stuck at 285 for a week now. I briefly flirted with 284 but went up a pound the next day.

Examine your diet make sure your not slipping something in that is increasing your caloric intake. If everything looks OK then just give it more time. It will come off.

Some say that a slight increase in carbs might get it moving again. I'm not sure about this.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
