I am 18 lbs from onederland. My weight loss seems to have slowed as I have only lost 3.2 lbs in 3 1/2 weeks. I am 5 months post-op. Any suggestions on what I can do? I am doing Zumba twice a week for 45 min. & Fit Club once a week for 45 min & then I use my exercise bike at home for 30 min twice a week. I am still eating 70 g or more of Protein & less than 40 g of carbs & 64 oz or more of Water per day. Any tips or hints would be appreciated!

Hey there.

First off, Sounds like you're doing awesome. Kudos to you for being so dedicated. I wish I had the right answer for you, but all I can tell you is what has worked for me. Honestly, when i stall..... I eat junk. Carbs. Stuff I shouldn't. But if I up my calories one day and then back on track the Next day, for some reason my body reacts to it and the scale moves. I don't know if its just me tricking my body, I'm not sure. But that's my way/ story and its worked for me this far. I've never stalled more than a week or two tops. Stay up on your Water and try to up your calories for a day or two. If it doesn't work, then that's just not the way for you, but for me, always works. Best wishes!!

Tekara-Actually, Jan 26th I decided that once a month, I would allow myself something I wouldn't normally have. That day I had 1/2 of a belgian waffle with whipped butter & pecan Syrup from IHOP-I couldn't even eat the entire 1/2. Then I had 1/2 rack of ribs that evening. My carbs that day ended up being 104 as opposed to 40 of less. So, from Jan 15th (my weigh in for Jan.)-Feb 9, I only lost 3.2 lbs. My NUT said not to worry about calories but I haven't talked to her in quite awhile. I have an appt with the surgeon for another follow-up on Feb 28th. but I would hate to wait until then to find out how to get the weight loss moving again. I appreciate your response & maybe it will work. Anyone else have any suggestions?

      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.
