Want to talk about a stall again?



Recommended Posts

Hi,

I'm 9 weeks post op revision, I lost 25 lbs the first 2 weeks....that felt amazing!!

7 weeks, and not a single lb. down.

I'm starting to feel very frustrated, any suggestions?

Also, I add wheat germ into my yogurt daily, is that a mistake? Is it a free food?

R u exercising .. Ii am 10 weeks out and was at a stall for two weeks. I knew I had to exercise to get out of my stall. I do 30 minutes 4 days a week of medium strenuous exercise ( I do break out into a pouring sweat)and am taking swimming lessons. Once I started exercising my stall broke. I lost 3 pounds that first week of exercising and continue yo lose consistently.

How many calories and Protein r u ingesting. I am about 800 calories and 70 gprotrin. R u eating enough calories. Contact your nutritionist also. She can help.

Thanks so much for your reply!

I did join a gym, excersizing daily. Does it matter how much protein I'm getting? How is that related?

Protein is very important for weight loss and keeping muscle mass while u lose weight. Your dr office or your nutritionist should have given u eating guidelines for continue weight loss success. Find out this info quickly ,,u need guidance of what and how much to eat. If your doc/ hospital where u had the surgery does not have this info...the internet has tons of info of what to eat..getting in enough protein is a key cimponent to continued weight loss after the sleeve,

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
