Hi! I had the same issue and what I did to break the stall was eat about 100 g Protein, drink twice as much Water (I was constantly drinking between meals....after waiting an hour of course) and walked my dogs more so I got more exercise! I also started lifting some small weights. 2 days of that and I lost 3 pounds! Give it a try!

I was stalled for 11 Days. But in the last 3 days i lost 8 pounds. I just changed my routine. Instead of only weight training and pushups i started walking 5 miles a day and a hundred pushups. I try to not weigh my self everyday but it is hard not to.

I am 21 days post op today and I am stalled for one week....I have been eaing very little and drinking my 70-80grams of protien daily. I also walk for one hour on a treadmill daily. What gives? After reading some of your posts, I feel a bit better but being stalled after only losing 18lbs is a little disheartening.

I was stalled for 6 weeks

I drank a gallon of Water a day, raised my calories to 1000, carbs to 95

And completely redid my exercise routine.

I lost 3 pounds this week.

I think my body was in starvation mode, I spent too long at 700 calories.

Good luck I know it sucks!

Encouraging words. Thanks! I cannot wait until Aug 18th so I can do more than just walk. I want to add a little weight training and more cardio. More Water could be the key too. I finally did go down another pound so all is ok. One more question.... will I ever get to eat popcorn again when I go to the movies? I hear that corn is not good but what about my beloved popcorn - no butter of course.

      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.
