Talked to the nurse today. She says I am not eating enough. I have been real nervous to eat and my net calories have been between 500 and 700. She said to up my calories.

to all my fellow stallers at 3weeks +' date=' I think we need to start our own sub support group what shall we call ourselves? the "stallers" sounds too much like "stalkers"...maybe we could call ourselves the IMPS (for "impatient losers")...I guess I am just trying to be light-hearted and find humor to deflect my continued frustration...I was telling leantoit in a personal message that I was thrilled when I got on the scale this morning and saw a one pound drop...now you know it's pathetic when you've stalled so long that even a one-pound loss thrills you...but, I am perfectly aware that the assumed well fought for pound might return once again tomorrow morning and I know I shouldn't be weighing every day but I just can't help it now...let's just all hang in there together and support each other...oh, and I sincerely am happy for my fellow May sleevers who are experiencing quicker losing [/quote']

Seven weeks out now. I have been stalled over four weeks..lost 12 pounds TOTAL post-surgery. I am beyond stressed and depressed. I had been reading posts now have stopped because I know I'm doing everything I'm supposed to and still..nothing. Hopefully this so called stall will end and the surgery wasn't all for nothing :-(

that is a long stall, so I am wondering if something is going on...getting Proteins in? hydration? some walking? have you talked with your NUT about what you've been eating and what he/she could advise? Hang in there

It was good to read I'm not the only one frustrated with how slow I am losing.

Pre surgery diet started 266.5

Day of surgery 257.5

June 18 242 and havent budged since.

I had two periods of no loss for 5 days so today I expected a loss but nope.

I hit the 50 pound mark on Wednesday, I am so excited but I know that I still have a long way to go. I don't see the light at the end of the tunnel yet but at least I've started the journey.

[Shirlann 14]

I have finally started losing weight. Have been losing a pound a day for the past couple of days. I did up my calories some.

How much did you increase your calories?

[Shirlann 14]

I went from 600 -800 up to around 1000. I added a whey Protein shot which is 180 cal and a muscle milk which is 170. That protein shot has 42 gms.
