Is everyone working out that is stalling?

I'm stalling and I walk 40 minutes a day, ride exercise bike 30-40 minutes daily, and lift weight for arms 15 minutes 5 times a week. Very frustrating. I never go over 1000 calories either and drink 100 oz of Water a day. I only got 37 more pounds to lose and its taking forever!!!

So I have a question (or four)... are you eating three meals a day? Or are you eating five small meals a day? And are you losing or have you stalled??? Also, if you get to the end of the day and haven't met your Protein goal, how do you supplement?

I eat 5 to 6 meals a day. Not stalling just about 1lb a week. If I haven't met my protein goal I drink a Protein Shake.< /p>

Hey guys just want to see if anyone else has stalled a little in there 4th month. SD 10_8_12. I have been doing awesome and this month I have only lost 4lbs. I am a little worried! Anyone out there feeling me.

YES YES YES! It was so weird. I stalled and only lost 8 lbs. I was lingering right above 200 for almost two weeks. It was nail-biting, because I am working out and wasn't taking in more calories than allowed. Suddenly, out of nowhere, I began to drop and have lost 6 lbs in two weeks. So, I guess I'm back on track! Hang in there!

I have had stalls too. I was starting to graize some and not always make the best choices so I started cracking down the last few days and dropped 3 pounds. Unfortunately I have developed a hernia at the incision that had been infected postop, so I had backed off my exercise some. Just got an elliptical and that doesn't seem to aggravate it, and doc gave me the ok. Looks like I have another surgery down the road. He wants to wait as long as we can, because the more weight I lose, the easier the surgery will be.

      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.
