Stalled at 7 weeks out



Recommended Posts

Anybody out there who has gone through a stall in weight loss? I am 7 weeks post op and for the past week I have been at the same weight and I am following the program perfectly. Is this normal? I need some advice or reassurance or both. First month saw a 22lb loss than another 8lbs in weeks 4 &5 now I am stuck. If you have any information or a story of your own stall please let me know.

I just went through a 3 week stall, I know exactly how you feel. Make sure you are getting all your Protein and Water in, I have a real hard time with both. I have lost 4 lbs. since the stall in the last week. Hang in there, it will pass, stick to your routine and you shouldn't have any problem. When did you have your surgery, mine was Oct. 30 and I have lost 28 lbs.

Girl, being at the same weight for a week is NOT a stall.... Lol

Now if 4-5 weeks go by and you're the same weight, that may be a stall. But not 1 week.

Keep following the rules, Protein first, etc, the scale will move. :)

      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.
