I'm 3 weeks out and stalled for over a week. I'm getting in 700 calories a day. 60-80 Protein. Been short on the Water but got it all in today. Just wondering about the calories. How much should I go for?? I hate this stall. My husband seams surprised the weight isn't dropping off.

I stalled for a few days but I finally broke it. For me, it came down to eating real food. I think my body went into starvation mood, and I finally am kicking it into gear.

I seem to be stalling too...only like 5 pounds in 2 weeks. I know I'm only getting about 600-800 calories a day and that I need to add Protein Shakes back in...I was just so nauseated by them after the 3 weeks of liquids... Ok...going to CVS now to force myself to drink a Protein shake.....

I'm going on 3 weeks for a stall. I haven't lost anything. I'm one month out and I struggle eating real food. Almost everything makes me feel like I have to bring it up. I don't know what to eat now. I know I'm not getting enough calories or Protein in. I'm at a loss...

how much are you working out?? Are you really pushing yourself during it? I noticed when I excerise, if its too hard of a workout, I will stall, and than lose a lot the next week. I dance twice a week, and than do a dance tape once a week, along with walking during the day.

I just started exercising. I started Zumba classes and walking on a treadmill. I don't think I'm doing too much. I haven't worked out in a long time so I get winded quickly.

I was a little stalled when I was that low and the weight didn't start dropping until I was in the 1000-1100 range.

      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.
