How long does the stall last after you add weight training? I added it to my regimen on 5/2 and have been at a stall since then. I know that's normal because I am building muscle but it's still frustrating. I can feel slight changes in the way my clothes are fitting so I know the inches are going but when will that number move? My plan was to hide the scale for 30 days because I knew this would happen but I thought I could show restraint and not hope on. Boy was I wrong and now that I know I am at a stall I am obsessed.

and I am getting plently of Proteins and Water.....80-130g of Protein (80-90g a day is average, that's supplementing with shakes and shots) and 80-100g of Water (90g being average). I measure/weigh and log all my meals.

HIya movetolose,

Firstly, congrats on your success so far, 50lb in just over two mths is amazing best part of half way to goal already that is such a good time frame... secondly, congrats on your exercise programme... it sounds like you are seeing the benefits in your clothes already. Good feeling?

I can't really advise you on the stall issue as they hit me more often than weight loss... but I can say that I am getting smaller whilst the scale doesn't move; win win right?

Keep doing what you are doing,'cos you're ticking all the boxes and you Will see the results... yea, I am with you on the frustration side of things but the training is soooo worht it!

Good luck and keep us posted on your progress =]

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
