I started at 222 I am now 156 and I love my body but my goal is 145 and Im at a 6 week stall. I just had surgery on my foot and I can't exercise for at least 2 weeks. I'm really stressed that I will gain weight just laying here. I'm hungry all the time. I'm able to eat bigger portions as well. I can't go back ever! I am just praying that this stall ends and that I can eat healthy again and this hunger goes away.

You are getting head hunger girl.....Your not really hungry all the time....We revert back to our old way of thinking when things get a little rough...That is normal...Eat the way you have been eating through your journey. Keep up the Water intake and that will help with the head hunger...

You look awesome! Stay with it....... :)

Thank you guys so much. I know we all get discouraged but I'm going to keep trying. I'm 5' 1.5" pretty short. I'm still considered obese at my new weight. I guess we are never happy with our bodies.

I just want to see that 145 on the scale. I have to make it happen.

Thank you again for your encouragement. I know we can do it!! This is the best decision we made.

Sleeved Dec. 2012. Started at 314 and am 250 now. I started out as a size 26 and am down to a 16-18 which makes me really happy. But, I think I am in a stall again; they are so frustrating. I was told buy my Nut. to increase my calories from 900 to 1200 a day. I did that 3 weeks ago and nothing changed. I work out in the pool 4-6 days a week (workouts on land are limited due to back and joint problems). My goal is 175 so I am 1/2 way there. Any suggestions to break this stall?

      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.
