diekoi 43 Posted September 5, 2013 I am 8 mo post op, and I have stalled. It is brutal! I am thinking I need to change things up. I had quit the Protein Shakes, but I think I am going to start them again. Trick my body. My surgeon said I could stop the shakes and just eat natural protein- but I think the issue is im not really hungry so I pick on things, some not so great! Going back to basics!

QweenNique 44 Posted September 6, 2013 Stalling sucks I have hit another the only thing that I can do is up Protein and Water intake. I still limit myself to 800 or so calories which might not be good since on the 9th I will be 5months out. Sent from my iPhone using VST Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
colcol 128 Posted September 6, 2013 I think exercise is key and I've slowed down these past 2 weeks:( I'm emotionally eating things I shouldn't be because my cat is very sick it really stinks I thought Weight loss was going to be easier !! I guess it's definitely back to Protein shakes ! Sent from my iPhone using VST Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
denise a 22 Posted September 7, 2013 Im 5 months out and I stalled for 2 months...the 3 n 4 ....i started using Myfitnesspal and now im losing again...not very fast...maybe a pound to a pound n a half per week..but ill take it...i think stalls are adjustments in our bodies...be sure to measure at least monthly and appreciate the None scale Victories along the way.when the scale doesnt move 1 lucy00us reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jamie5711 27 Posted September 8, 2013 I've been stalling for 3 weeks now and yes it stinks!! I measured myself yesterday and I am the same, so I'm not even losing inches.. But my clothes are looser and I'm wearing smaller clothes, it's weird! I've decided today that I'm gonna go back to liquids for a day or so and see if that breaks this stall.. I just want to get under 200, which I'm getting close but I'm not there yet and I've wonder myself if I'll get there or is this it and ill be stuck at this weight forever.. Good luck everyone!!

ChristineR 128 Posted September 8, 2013 That half piece of bread won't make you stall. Sometimes our bodies have to play catch up. Try not to stress too much because it will come off. When I don't lose for 1-2 weeks then my weight loss often doubles when it does come off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AutismMom 92 Posted September 8, 2013 I was sleeved 6-17-13 I'm 50lbs down and have 36lbs to goal. No weight loss for 2 weeks. This is my second stall so I'm not as freaked out. The more you move, the less you stall. BUT, when you do stall.....that's all it is!! A STALL! It will keep coming off, just remember you get a chance to make the best choice you can for your body again tomorrow. And btw bread isn't always bad. 1 ChristineR reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kitkatcannon 26 Posted September 8, 2013 I'm 6 weeks post-op and hit a stall at 2 weeks that lasted for about 2 1/2 weeks. However, out of no where I started loosing again and lost 5 lbs just this week. I didn't freak out because after reading several posts on here it seems like everyone goes through this every so often so it is completely normal. Just be patient and Celebrate all of the weight you've lost so far. The weight will start coming off again before you know it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bwatts13 102 Posted September 9, 2013 I am 11 months out and I would say I have had 6 times my weight loss would stall on each one I would change my diet eat more calories eat some high fat food for 3-4 days and go back to my healthy low cal food and the weight would fly off you have to get your body out of the routine because your body get resistant to the same thing u do over and over like meds. My start weight was 451 and cw is 246. 205 lbs so far. Try this and you will see a big deference also I noticed during the stalls I was losing inches even though I wasn't losing and would gain a pound or 2.
