Mandabear 1 Posted September 27, 2012 I am about 6 weeks post op and although i have lost about 22 lbs, I have come to a complete stall. my scale hasnt budged in about a week! I am not eating anything bad, I watch my calorie intake I focus on Protein and hydrating, and i exercise almost every day. Is it normal to stall like this? could it be getting harder because I only have 30 lbs to goal weight? please help! im worried that i will not lose any more! Help!!!

Kika79 64 Posted September 27, 2012 What are you eating? You might need to increase your cardio? Change up the routine. Whenever I have a stall I go back to basics.4oz of food for Breakfast, lunch and dinner. 2 Protein shakes and Water through out the day. Hope this helps.

Mandabear 1 Posted October 2, 2012 I am eating one egg for Breakfast, tuna for lunch and a very small supper of mostly Protein. ( i still cannot eat more than a few ounces at a time) I eat a Protein Bar for a snack and drink plenty of Water and green tea. The scale finally came down a lb but with the amount of exercise I do I am just so shocked that im not losing more. i guess I will just have to wait and be patient. thanks for the support kika!

anb3333 2 Posted April 5, 2013 I too have hit a stall. Including 1 week pre-op diet, I lost 32lbs as of my 3rd week post-op. I'm now at 4.5 weeks and the scale hasn't moved in at least 6 days. I think most of my problem is that I tried 7 different Protein supplements and wasn't able to tolerate any of them. So, I didn't get any Protein other than from my food. I started taking Ensure High Protein yesterday which has 25g of protein per bottle. Drinking 2 gives me 50g daily. I hope this helps my stall. Anyone care to share info about your stalls?
