So I have been dieting up and down to 355 pounds for about 7 years.... everytime I have had any succes I make it to almost exactly 313 pounds. That is the lowest I have been in 11 years. So guess where I have been stalled for the last 10 days, you guessed it 313. It is killing me to see that same dreaded number!! I know I will beat it this time BUT COME ON!!! couldn't I have stalled at 299?

I know that feeling. The same thing happened to me. Just stick with it!!! If need, increase exercise to help push you over that hill. You got this!

I have read several times on VST that people seem to stall at their "stable" weights in life and for me it was true. I am at my "old" lowest band weight and have been for 3 weeks. I just keep plugging away, changing my calorie intake some days and exercising more.

No worries! There is no way that you will be stuck there forever (although right now it feels like it) That 299 is well on its way!!

I have been at my "stable weight" for 2 weeks now! You're not alone, my Nut said to continue following all the rules and the weight will start to drop again

One tthing that I have done when my weight has stalled in the past is vary the exercises, switch the order of the exercises, increase or decrease the weight and reps, among other things. I know with me, my body gets immune to things very quickly. So I always have to change things up. This even goes for my medications as well. Sometimes you have to put your body into shock to jump it into gear. Keep up the good work and you will reach your goal with your head held high.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
