Lose 10 and stall, lose 10 and stall



Recommended Posts

Anyone else experiencing this? I'll lose 10 pounds, stall for 2 weeks. Lose 10 more and stall for 2 weeks. I have noticed though that my bust waist and hips measurements going down and clothes fitting much looser. My dad even calls me "Slim" now...but still far from it. Just curious if this is normal or if anyone else is doing this?

yah, I think that's pretty typical since your body is still trying to catch up from the rapid weight loss. Happens to me constantly. One time I stalled for 2 weeks and the next morning I was down 7 lbs. It gets frustrating but its normal to still lose inches during the stalls... so that's what keeps me going. So at least you know you're not alone!! :)

I stall for 3 weeks at a time. My clothes are fitting loser. I never thought to take measurement but I guess I could do that. I'm not sure if I'm having enough Protein. I do 1 shake a day of whey which is 24 g and take Protein through other sources. I'm going to increase my shakes to 3 a day to see if that will increase my weight loss.

Sounds like you kind of operate on a 3-week loss cycle. If it begins to bother you, maybe just weigh one per month :)

      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.
