The looong stall !

Has anyone had a stall that lasted 2 months or longer. ??

Yes! I was basically stalled for most of March, April and the beginning of May. Normally I would lose about 8-10 lbs per month. I lost less than 8 lbs in about 10-11 weeks during this "stall'.

I think my body is trying to adjust to a new level of weight (roughly around the weight I was steady at in high school, 25+ yrs ago), so it's "stuck' for a while here.

Also, I have definitely been eating more food (though most of the time, I am getting good levels of Protein in, and staying reasonable with the carbs (considering my workout levels) at <100 g per day).

Despite not losing much weight, I have gone down in my measurements and clothing sizes during this "stall". So I'm not worried. I've just readjusted my timeline. I thought I would get to goal by October 2013 (17 months post-op), but now I think it's more realistic that I will only reach my goal at 21 months post-op.

So what...who cares? I am already smaller now than I have ever been in my adult lift, and slowly but surely, I'm getting smaller each week.

I know that mathematically, the "stall" cannot last forever. Calories in - calories out = loss if I exercise enough, even if I eat more than planned.
