Ok I'm 19 weeks today, and for the past three weeks I have only lost one pound a week... some weeks the darn scale won't even move. Not sure why its slowing down sooo much. I still have A lot to go! I'm starting to think that I'm not gonna reach my weight goal :(

Has anyone else gone thru this? I'm soon to be 5 mons... I was hoping to be a lot thinner by this point.

Mine took off at 1st girl and then stopped for 2 months and now that I'm loosing again I'm only loosing 2 lbs a week! I totally feel yea but my friend who is 2 years out told me about 5 months it slows down and by 6-7 months it speeds back up! I hope she's right!! I hate loosing this slow while everyone else is loosing a lot!

Very, very common and absolutely nothing to worry about. It's all part of the process. It seems to be different for everyone and occurs at different points in time, but just about everyone has stalls, lulls, plateaus - whatever you want to call it. Stay focused on the protocol, stay active and stay away from the scales for a couple of weeks. You'll be back on track in no time!!

I'm told if you hit a plateau, change up the exercise routine, add Protein, and make sure you are not washing out your pouch by drinking and eating at the same time.

You have done phenomenal so far, so you know this is just temporary! :)

I've been at a stall for about 2 weeks now and I'm only 3 months out. I just had my 3 month check up yesterday & talked to the dr and was just told it happens..that's it. Not real enthused with their answer :/

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
