I'm on my second stall and I just had surgery may 15th. My first stall lasted5 days then I lost a few pounds within a week then BAM another stall...going on day 6. I lost one pound yesterday and nothing again. Its frustrating but can't quit so just keep pushing.

I have stalled numerous times. I am over it cause if you pay close attention your body is changing. Stay on the Protein, up it if you can and drink Water, drink water and then drink some water.

I stalled around that time too I think allot of people do your body is adjusting to the new way of life It will pass you will lose and stall then lose then stall. In the end you will lose the weight and that's whats important :) Dont let this bring you down keep up with everything you have been doing :)

I find the lower the calories I eat the slower I lose. I eat 800-1000 per day and am losing 2-3 lbs a week which I'm very happy with. When I was only eating 600 I was always tired, dizzy and didn't lose. My husband and I went to Vegas when I was 5 weeks and he laughed because I was totally spent by 8pm every night (that is soooo unlike me lol)! I also started adding some carbs. oatmeal mainly and I think that also helped. Good luck to you.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
