Stalling at the worst times!!!



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone...just need to vent!

Why is it that my body decides to stall right when I am about to achieve a goal?!?!!? Ugghh it is so frustrating! So I salled at 204 pounds for 3 and half weeks when I just wanted to hit Onederland. Now I am only 2 pounds away from losing 100 lbs and I have been stalled for a week. I wonder if it is psychological or something? lol Anyone been thru this?

So, Has anyone found a good way to get out of a stall???

Thank you!

Magnesium Citrate!!! This cleans your intestines out really good!!

I know this isn't the most "ideal" way to break a stall, but it worked for me!!

I understand your frustration. . . try this one. . . I hit 200 lbs and was soooo waiting to hit 199 or less. . . well guess what???? it's been what 5 months and i waver between 200 - 210 all the time, never under. . . i've done everything from starting a new diet, to increase the exercise, to increase Water, cutting out alcohol all together, doing the 5 day pouch test, with no avail. . . . sooooooooooo i asked about this on this forum and what was answered made so much sense. . . Diva said that there comes a time in this journey when the body hits a weight that you were on the longest before you started gaining weight. . .for me it was 210 - 215lbs I weighed that for ever it seemed and then became pregnant and gain a million pounds. . . now i'm back to my pre pregnant weight and have been there for ever (5 months) without loosing anymore. . . ugh. . . maybe it's going to move soon, maybe not . . . we'll see. . . all i need to loose is only 30 or so more pounds! :P frustrating to say the least

      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.
