Sitting at a stall and frustrated!



Recommended Posts

One day 301, next 303, next 302, next 301. It's been like this for almost 2 weeks now!!!

So frustrated. How do we break these? I am eating no more or less than I normally have and I'm working out. I just wanna get under 300 for God sake. lol Why couldnt I stall at 295?

I did the same thing at 206.... what got me going was to increase my exercise intensity.... started interval jogging instead of just walking..... it started moving again... down to 185 now... and at a stall again... trying to think what I can do now to up my game :)

I kept stalling like every other week, so I just started paying closer attention to what was going in - I dont cheat, but sometimes the calories were higher than I like - and what was being burned off. It seems to help when I focus on those things a little more.

I usually will change things up for a few days if I'm stalled and I've been doing basically the same thing. I'll up my carbs for a couple of days then drop them back down, or I'll focus on increasing my Protein to > 100 gm a day for a few days. Sometime it just takes me changing something up just a little for me to get the scale back moving again. It seems like I stall right at the cusp of the next set of 10's. I did it at 300, 250, 230, 220. Now I'm between 214 and 211.9. I haven't seen 210 since college but maybe even high school. I am so impatient for it! Keep at it, the stall will break. I stalled 3 times in the first 3 months and now I'm down a total of 120 pounds. It's no fun but it won't last forever.

      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.
