A stall in the first week?



Recommended Posts

Had surgery one week ago. scale hasn't moved in four days. Really weird. Am now on the soft food Stage IV diet after yesterday. Got 70+ g of Protein in yesterday, got 60+ oz of Water in. Every day, I've been following the script to the letter.

I read about stalls, and I know that people say not to worry, but it's weird. Anyone else encounter one already like this?

I bet your body is still swollen and you still have all the gunk left over from surgery..... continue to follow the script - I bet you will see it soon!

Day 10 post-op, day 7 of completely stalled weight loss. Getting all my Protein in (70-80g daily) as well as fluids (64+ oz of water).

My surgeon said that the first month is about healing, not losing. Still I can certainly understand your confusion and frustration. What kind of foods are you eating?

My "meals" are 2 oz of mushy Protein 3x a day (yesterday was B - Cottage cheese, L - Baby food, D - Ricotta), and then a Protein Shake, as well as a small homemade protein pudding for a nighttime snack. In between, fluids all the time (broth, sf Jello, Water, C Light, etc.).

I had my surgery 10 days ago and have lost 16 pounds. I have also stalled. Everyone says it is normal while we heal, but I definitely want to see movement! Hang in there Jeff!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
