5 Weeks Out And And Stalled 4

[allmee 4]

Ok guys haven't lost anything since 4 weeks ago. One week I gained 4 lbs and then lost it. Now back to the first twenty pounds. Frustrated.

You lost 20lbs in a month thats not bad. Have you tried cutting back on carbs they have always affected my weight loss. I am at the lower BMI I lost 20 at first and only lost about 10 per month. but much more than I was before sleeve. Some of us just have to be more patient!!

I stalled out for almost 6 weeks. I re-evaluated EVERYthing I was taking in. I found that if I go too far above 800 calories, I stop losing. I scaled back anything with carbs (I still need 1/4 cup Grape nuts in my low carb yogurt for some "fiber action") and laid off weights at the gym and just going with cardio and walking. That pushed me back into loss mode. I was frustrated with the stall, and started getting careless.

I've been on a stall too.... Your a newbie!!! If it were me I would call your Doctor (nut) that's what they are there for...It might just be sum small little thing that you can change... Please make the call,this time right now is so critical.

good luck!!

I feel your pain. I am a slow loser naturally. I don't mind losing just a one pound a week, but I had a stall at 3 weeks that lasted 3.5 weeks and then all of a sudden, four pounds fell off. I was doing everything right and we all know that you can not sustain your current weight with the amount of calories you're actually putting in. I came into this forum to lament to someone and got the encouragement I needed to stop stepping on the scale and it'll all work out if you stick to the program. I would not make the "Biggest Loser" show very long, but consistent loss and many, many inches are on my side. Remember this is a marathon not a sprint and going to bed at night knowing that you've done your best will reap rewards.

Relax and enjoy the journey, I'm down about 27 lbs since my Dec surgery and just staring to get the compliments and really feeling the advantages of hauling around a few less lbs. It'll all work out for you.. The best of luck.
