Help...I I'mnot losing weight..What have I done wrong?



Recommended Posts

I had the gastric sleeve done June 5, 2013. I seem to be at a stand still and can't seem to lose anymore weight. I have been at the same weight now for a couple months. I know stress can sometimes play into it but... I watch a coworker lose weight so easy but I haven't been able to. I can't hardly eat more than a few bites at a time, I graze most of the time. I have a hard time getting all the Vitamins and supplements in as well as the Water. I do use unflavored Protein powder with yogurt smoothies and Protein Bars. Can anyone help me figure out what I am doing wrong?

Need more info. How many calories, Protein, and Water are you getting in? What does grazing all day mean to you?

Use my fitness pal and track calories, carbs and liquid. Sometimes we think we are not eating very much but when we keep track it shows up different especially if you are grazing. Keep your Protein up also.

I'm in the same pickle. I know I'm spot on with the exercise. I've completed the 5k program and have started training for a half marathon. I have only lost 6 lbs in the last 6 months! I know I've toned up but that's not enough. It's in my good consumption.

I only eat 3 specific times a day and usually not more than 4 or 5 oz. sometimes in the evening I eat 1/2 carb master yogurt from Kroger. I also only eat 800 calories or less a day.

I use myfittnesspal and log every bite I put in my mouth and I walk at least 1 mile a day. Even doing all that I average only about 2 pounds a week.

I think keeping track of what you eat is the key. Grazing and sliders will get you.

I also try to get between 60 and 80g of Protein and keep my carbs under 50g.

I used unflavored powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury and mix it with Water and crystal light.

Hope that helps. Blessings. T

Oh and only drink 30 minutes after you eat. That is key. ????

My surgery was on June 7, 2013 and my weight loss has now slowed down to about a pound a week. Try getting in all your Protein and Water. Watch those carbs especially with grazing and eating Protein Bars. You might also look into the 5:2 diet. A lot of people have had success with jump starting their weight loss with this. You have done terrific with losing 79 pounds!! Hang in there!! :)

      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.

      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.
