So I am not quite 5 months out and I have been in this stall for about 3 weeks and I feel like I am not going to lose anymore weight. I also feel like I can eat more food. I am still only able to eat a small amount of food but more than before. I thought if you eat more that it can actually cause a boost in weightloss because your body doesn't feel like it's in starvation mode. I am still eating right and excersing the the way I am supposed to. Any tips? ??? I don't I want this to be the end to my journey with about 40lbs left to go.

Hang in there it will happen. I don't weigh but once a month so I don't have to deal with the stalls and ups and downs. I am 4 months out, losing my hair 50 lbs down. I too can eat more and have been, I just concentrate on my Proteins and Water. But loving my sleeve

Yeah I started to lose my hair at month 2 which sucks but not too bad because my hair is really thick and I have a lot of it so you can't tell that its falling out. My problem is im a scale ***** and weigh myself everyday. I have had stalls that last a week but not 3 so it gets very discouraging. I've done well so far and shouldn't complain but it's hard not to think that I'm done ugh

      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.
