Hey guys. Hope everyone is doing great! I need a little advice. I am 6 months out & I have hit the dreaded stall. Any suggestions to help me out. I've been seeing the same 2 numbers go back & forth for about 4 weeks now. I've just added Pilates this week & next week start kickboxing. Hoping that helps... I get in about 50-60 grams of Protein a day & I'm good with my water... Still haven't even had a piece of bread yet! Thanks....

Add a couple hundred cal a day for 2 days and make sure carbs are increased also. Then go back to regular regimen. This works for me. Our bodies are strange indeed. They get used to so little food and shut down. When we feed it it starts to loose again.

I am in the same boat! I have been at a stall since early February. I think we just need to be patient, I think. Sometimes I wonder how long a stall can last. You and I are very similar as far as activity and consumption of protein. I am considering doing Dr. Oz's three day detox to maybe "jump start" the weight loss again. But I totally feel you! It is frustrating!!! Hopefully there are others who reply to give more insight.

Thanks! I don't feel so alone or a failure! Even though we're doing everything right you still feel that's its your fault! I will increase the carbs a bit! Hope this breaks soon! Although I really can't complain. I've lost 87 pounds & feel great...

      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.
