IS there anyone out there that could pass on some pointers on to how I can get to losing weight again? It seems that I have had my surgery 6 weeks ago and stuck at the 30 lbs weight loss. And not moving. Am I doing something wrong??? Please any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

I will be 6 weeks out next Thursday. For 6 days I didn't lose a pound. Weighed myself yesterday and I had dropped four. Im sure you are doing everything right. From what I have read on here we will encounter many stalls along the way. Good luck!!

I'm 5 weeks and at a stall! So annoying, but I expected this from what I've read on the forum.

I am 5 months out and this is your first of many stalls, trust me. I have lost 85 pounds n been stuck there for bout a week. It's just your body going into "starvation mode". It will store fat thinking that your starving because of your change in eating habits. It's super annoying, but part of it :) good luck on your journey, it's tough but wonderful :)

      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.
