I finally reached a stall :-( :-( from 278 to 207 and now the scale won't move!!!!!! According to my goals I should be 200lbs by the end of this month 7/30...I don't see that happening :-( what can I do to jump start the weight loss again??? Getting frustrated I really want to be under 200...I haven't seen that since childhood!

Wellll, build in stalls to your plans. We ALL get them and they rarely match up with our goals! You are close and WILL get there, so I hope that will be OK... You'll get there!

You are doing great. Only 7 lbs away from your 7/30 goal, that's awesome. But don't worry, it will happen the way that it suppose to happen. don't get discouraged. Keep up the good work.

Honestly, I don't think there is anything to do other than follow the plan. Protein first, restrict your calories, exercise. I'm in the SAME boat! I also really want to be under 200 by the end of this month, and I've been stuck here since the beginning of July. I know it will come off at some point, but when you are this close to a personal goal, it's frustrating when your body just won't cooperate! I wish there was something I could do, but I know better. I can't explain why this happens any more than I can explain the last 20 pounds that seemed to miraculously disappear so quickly. I'm just taking it as it comes....and only complaining a little, lol! Hang in there!

I am in the same boat! I talked to my NUT yesterday but she really wasn't any help. I have been the same weight, the EXACT same weight for over a week. I am keeping it to 700 calories, I am getting all my Protein in, hell, I have 2 boxes of frickin paczki straight from Hamtramik (very yummy and very fattening donuts for those that don't know) behind me and I am not even looking in the boxes. I feel like I should be rewarded for my good behavior, LOL. I am only 5 weeks out and started the stall at 3 weeks, even gaining 1.2 lbs at one point in the last 2 weeks. How do you gain weight at 700 calories?! I am getting frustrated, but my husband and NUT tell me everything is fine. Not sure what else I can do...

      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.
