Jan Sleevers - who has been at a plateau?



Recommended Posts

Hey fellow Jan sleevers. I cant complain too much as I have been loosing at a pretty good clip till about 2 weeks ago. Would love to heard from my peers from Jan:

- have you plateaued?

- If so for how long?

- What did you do to bust thru or just wait it out?

- Any change in diet / exercise you think triggered it?

Thx

No stalls yet but I'm sure they will come. I am a slow loser about 1lb a week. I have just upped my calories and I think it's helping. I am now eating about 900 calories a day. Try upping your calories.

I had my surgery on jan 7th and lost 60lbs so far but have hit a stall for the past two weeks... I shouldn't complain since I'm down a lot but everyone keeps expecting to hear I've lost more since the 60lb total 2 weeks ago... I work in a salon so everyday clients ask me what my "new total" is and I feel guilty when I probably shouldn't that it hasn't changed

I was sleeved on 1/8 and I too was loosing at a pretty good pace up until the past few weeks. I started at 262 and I'm stuck between 206-210. It's been about 3 weeks at this weight and I just can't seem to break it. I've added a new cardio routine to my workout plan and still nothing. If anyone finds any fixes for a dreaded stall please keep me updated!

First congrats on the great progress all

Stalled for the last 2 weeks (ok down a pound in last day but could be an anomaly) I can empathize

I stall every other week... weight jumps up and down for about a week but eventually catches up. I am losing about 3lbs a week, almost 10 weeks out. I exercise a lot so I like to tell myself I am gaining muscle and losing fat. I did notice I dropped a pant size during my last stall which lasted about 10 days... go figure.

I seem to have regular stalls every couplebof weeks. I'm dying to lose the next 10 pounds and be in onederland! I work out a ton and eat great so it's all I can really do. Measurements help and so do photos because the inches are definitely coming off. My surgery was 1/29 and I'm down 43 pounds and 20 inches!

      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.
