Ms.AntiBand 2,984 Posted January 29, 2013 I am going on a four week stall.. Getting tired of it, but I figure this is a lifetime change so I figure I can be patient. Plus I'm not hungry so all is good Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alabamasleever 58 Posted January 29, 2013 12/12/12 and I have gained. Really depressed about it. Kinda giving up. Gained from when, 12/12? Or in the last few days? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DanaInNewOrleans 513 Posted January 29, 2013 Gained from when, 12/12? Or in the last few days? Do you mean you've haven't lost any weight or that you've gained recently? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
terravue 18 Posted January 29, 2013 How much have you gained? Please don't lose heart, you've come this far on the journey. I've had to re evaluate what I am eating and drinking. Most of us seem to have experienced a stall. It is good to stay connected here for support. Keep us posted. You can do this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeeBrownBaker 139 Posted January 29, 2013 I'm a 12/5 sleever and I lost quickly... hit a stall... gained 2 lbs... then lost 4... gained 2 of them back and the scale hasn't moved in almost 2 weeks... Maybe I should try and up my calories for a few days...just to make sure my body knows it isn't being starved... I am managing to get in 700-800 cals and but I keep coming in shy of 60 grams of Protein ... I sometimes think about giving up but... I've had surgery... give up how? it is what it is... and I am going to make the best of it... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kitkat 76 Posted January 29, 2013 Dee, Yup me too, I wanna give up when everyone is eating "good" stuff. Like today at lunch in a room full of twenty something skinny beautiful girls. Then I think, give up how, my stomach is gone! lol sometimes I take one bite too many and realize giving up is impossible. That was the whole reason I had surgery so I couldn't give up. We have to be patient. At some point we will win. I just keep yelling at myself (in my head) "DON'T LOSE FOCUS!" I hope it works. K Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cygnusatratus 73 Posted January 29, 2013 Anyone who is stalled should really check carb levels. If I eat over 40g of carbs per day I can actually gain weight overnight. Under 20g of carbs and I lose really well. Everyone may have a different level of carb tolerance where your body wants to store Water and glycogen. Mine has always been very low. 2 DanaInNewOrleans and rholt35 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ms.AntiBand 2,984 Posted January 29, 2013 I have my calories set @ 900, but rarely get over 600 in and my carb level is 23 and record shows I have never exceeded it. Oh well! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The first pic was about two weeks ago the second one is today Sent from my iPhone using VST that happens to me. I guess it's because we see ourselves every day lol. But people around noticed more. I still see myself big too but my clothes now fit better and some are even starting to fit loose plus I am now wearing clothes that didn't fit before. I guess that's when I realize I am actually loosing weight Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
