Plateu

I had my procedure on October 4th. My pre-op weight was 284. It will be six months since my surgery and I am now 224. However, this last month it seems as though I only lost maybe 2 or 4 lbs. I joined a gym last week and went 4 times. I have started walking, I eat/drink as much Protein as I can and dring plenty of Water. I need a jump start to continue the weight loss. I wanted to have reached my goal of 180 lbs by May; but if the weight doesn't start to come off again, I am afraid that I won't make it. Can someone suggest something.

I have had those stalls a lot along the way. It sounds like you are doing everything right. When the weight stops falling off try to remember that it's your body adjusting to everything. Keep measuring your inches, because when you are working out you may be replacing fat with muscle and muscle takes up less space...and looks much better so the scale might not be moving, but that doesn't mean you aren't getting smaller. I know that right now I weigh 170 and can fit a size 9-14... And the last time I weighed 170 I didn't work out at all...and I was in a size 14-16 then. Working out makes a lot of difference! Keep smiling! You will get there!
