melinda48 37 Posted January 4, 2013 You've lost 19lbs since Dec. 12th? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joy0125 95 Posted January 4, 2013 I was sleeved on 12/18 and had a stall for a good week. I cut back on calories and met minimum Protein and I think that just prolonged it. I went back to 600-750 calories, tried to get back to 70g+ of protein and increased my Water and poof - I started losing again. I think sometimes we panic and do things that we think will help us but that hamper our weight loss. Good luck! 1 Butterthebean reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

melinda48 37 Posted January 4, 2013 if it makes you feel any better I had my surgery Nov. 2nd and have lost 23lbs as of today. My height is 5'6 and I weighed 212 day of surgery 189 today. Your height/starting weight makes a difference . Sounds like your doing awesome..your body just probably needs to adjust for the rapid 19 lb. loss. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dlinnh 44 Posted January 4, 2013 well my story outa make you feel better about yourself. sleeved on 11/12/12 weight day of surgery about 222. Today I am only at 209. you do the math - 13lbs. That's it! over christmas weeks I lost nothing. I ate a little less mindfully and had a few Lindt candies, but still nothing. So this week I hit everything on target - 72oz Water, Protein protein protein. little to no carbs - what do you know? I stepped on the scale this morning and it is STILL 209. I'm gonna continue and then weigh myself in a few more days, and if still nothing - I'm going back for a refund! LOL. Could I possibly be the only sleeved patient that never loses any more weight? Dear god I hope not... 1 ckunes reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dlinnh 44 Posted January 5, 2013 Update today Saturday - got on scale and thought I must be down at LEAST a few ounces. NOPE still 209! So I take off my pj's (too personal - sorry) and socks and step on again - still 209! Here's what I ate today (which is a pretty typical day for me these days). I'm telling you my food choices in the order iin which I ate them: Protein shake with a few tablespoons of frozen mixed berries (made with mostly Water and little tiny bit of skim milk ) - I drank the whole thing one cup of coffee with some regular 1/2 and 1/2 (very little bit) and I'm NOT giving up 1/2 and 1/2 in one cup of coffee Water (24oz bottle) - yum 2 ozs of tuna with a little mayo 3 special k baked chips one piece of boston lettuce 24 more oz. of water dinner = skinless roasted chicken about 2 ozs. 1/2 cup of roasted eggplant and fresh asparagus that I made with a little olive oil in the oven. more water I'll bet you a million dollars that two more days from now I'm still at 209... on the upside I met a person I hadn't seen in a long time in the grocery store and she said I looked great! I'll keep plugging away at it - I mean it has to move downward at some point - right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
