Weight Loss Plateau! UGH!



Recommended Posts

OK! So I have been patient. I have been mellow about it... now I am mad, angry and inpatient.

I am at a stall of almost 4 weeks now and its killing me - The scale wont move down from 250!

My surgery was 11/26.

My calorie intake is still way under anything normal the highest it goes up to is maybe 700 and the lowest is 400 when I do just Protein Shakes. I am not hungry and I feel stuffed so I just CANT add anymore. There are days I only drink Protein because I just feel so full all day!

I work out literally 6 days a week. Mon-Sat. 1 hour of cardio everyday and 3 days of the week I do weight training to tone up.

What am I doing wrong?

What have any of you done to break this plateau and keep going?

HELP PLEASE I AM GOING CRRRRRRAAAAAZY!

You're gonna have to bump up the calories at least a little dear.....I'm supposed to get 800-1000 when I'm at your stage. Your body gets stingy and holds on to everything if it thinks you're starving.

Give your body a rest. Stop working out for a week and eat some carbs during that time. Next week cut out the carbs and start working out again. Your body will say WTH?? And start responding again :)

I am willing to bet you are losing inches! My doc said at our last group meeting that you lose weight hit a plateau. During the plateau you lose the most inches. I would suggest increasing your calories. You need to eat real food if you can tolerate it. My doc says he wants most of our Protein to come from whole foods. Meaning eating protein first, then your shakes, and finally Protein Bars.< /p>

When ever I stalled my clothes about fell off of me because I was losing so many inches. Calm down and stay on plan!

      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.
