manahane03 19 Posted October 11, 2013 You might try increasing your calories. I had a stall for a few weeks and read that anything under 800 calories puts your body in starvation mode. I also started doing some cardio which helped too!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sonia65 26 Posted October 12, 2013 In my humble non professional opinion you need to eat more. I eat a minimum of 850 calories a day most days and make sure Protein is at least 70 usually 85 or more. I had a stall for about 2 weeks but figure it was just my body adjusting and note it is coming of again. I am down 55 since beginning the pre op diet. Good luck :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sonia65 26 Posted October 12, 2013 Feel like c**p. Stayed out a bit longer than anticipated and had no Snacks with me. So when the family grabbed take out from the grocery store before we shopped I thought the yogurt parfait looked like it would work for me. Yogurt, granola, fruit. ... what can go wrong? Well half way thru got nauseous and crampy. So stopped eating. Went online and checked nutrition and it had 300 calories must have tons of sugar. Paying for it now:(. Lesson learned... always carry emergency Quest bars. 1 elli'smommy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sonia65 26 Posted October 29, 2013 I eat quite a bit of ricotta, Greek yogurt and cheese. Plus I have a Protein shake for Breakfast which gets me off to a good start. I will also throw a half scoop of Protein powder into a yogurt or coffee if I am short for the day(but trying not to do that too often). Plus I sometimes eat half a Quest bar for my Snacks.
