Bunnydee 40 Posted February 14, 2013 I was revised on 1/28 and from pre-op to now down 20 lbs. However, i have not lost anything in a week and even gained 2 pounds and now down 1....I am under 500 cal's a day. I have only been able to get in about 30 grms a Protein a day (sometimes) and about 25-40 oz's of Water. Does coffee and shakes count for the water? Anyone???

Delta girl 19 Posted February 14, 2013 Hi- I was sleeved jan 10th and I lost 20 lbs first 2 weeks and now have been stalled for 2 weeks. I lost 1 lb last week. I have been struggling with getting in Protein shakes and fluids since I advanced from full liquids. From what I read getting in all your Protein and fluids helps with the weight loss....so today I cut back to 2 oz per meal and concentrating on getting in all my fluids and protein. Hopefully that will help. I expected stalls along the way, but it stinks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JP69 116 Posted February 14, 2013 I have stalled too. I am 5 weeks out. I get about 64 grams of Protein in, but not quite all my fluids. The scale says I'm up 3#! How can it be, we hardly eat a.nything. And yes coffee and drinks of anykind count. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maquinn20 13 Posted February 15, 2013 I am one month out and lost 21 pounds in like 2 and a half weeks and stalled out. I put away the scale 5 days ago. The stalling devastated me. I get in about 60 grams of Protein a day and it seems to average 850 calories. How can I not be losing? I just assume my body is adjusting to the shock. I promised myself I wouldn't weigh myself until the 28th....it will have to budge by then! Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
