That is so frustrating! I'm almost 8 weeks out. I hit 2 small stalls. And even gained 2 lbs the other day. I freaked out! Like y'all, I was doing everything. My dr told me to stop looking at the scale and check how my clothes fit. Like I can not weigh! Lol. But, I know I've been doing it right and when I weighed yesterday, I dropped 3 lbs. Just keep on keeping on. It will drop over night. If you're tracking everything, you can call or email your NUT to make sure all is well. Make sure, if you are at a stage to eat, that you are eating something so your body doesn't think you are starving. I'm eating about 2 oz every 3-4 hrs per my surgeon and NUT.

I hit a 4-5 day stall this past week but ended up going back into the losing column. Down about 45lbs total (35 or so since surgery). My wife had surgery the same day and is down about 35lbs with some small stalls as well.

If anyone else uses myfitnesspal and wants to add me:

I came out of my stall that had lasted probably 10 days this weekend. I just upped my Protein intake by about 10 g a day and I also upped my liquid intake by about 10 more ounces so I'm getting about 72 to 75 ounces of liquid a day. I too can only drink my liquids at extreme temperatures I like my hot plantation mint tea and then I like my Water with lots and lots of ice but room temperature liquids yuck!

You probably aren't doing anything wrong. I had a stall that lasted 12 days. Log your food, drink your Water, get your Protein, exercise.

I think we all have it in our mind that the weight loss is going to be steady - A nice straight line that angles downward. In reality, it's more like the foothills of the mountains. You go down, you hit a flat, you might gain a lb or two and you might sit there for 5, 6, or 8 days, then you come to another hill and go down some more.

Is anyone having any particular type of food aversion? I have always been your typical American carnivore and now I hate meat! Well, I don't hate it but the minute it crosses my lips, it makes me nauseous! I'm highly frustrated by this and never planned on being a vegetarian but that's how I eat these days!

I have trouble with anything dense or really dry. chicken makes me yerk if its dry. Hamburger meat is usually no problem. I had some issues with pork too, usually because its pretty tough. As for other foods, tortillas, bread, noodles and starches (besides potatoes and such) generally give me that "stuck" feeling. Shrimp and fish seem to be my easiest meats to eat.

I'm 8 weeks put and can't eat any meat that is dry or too dense either. Very moist chicken or hamburger is ok sometimes. Using sauces or something to moisten or soften it helps. Fish with sauce and lots of lemon juice is ok. I just can't really eat much of anything at all. There is little enjoyment in eating anymore. But that's ok since enjoying food a little too much is what got me where I was and never want to be again!

meat and I are still besties.. In fact, I've not had issues with anything I've tried. The foods I really didn't like pre-surgery I still don't like (except for Greek yogurt). And the foods I liked pre-surgery I can eat with no issues. I had one incident with sausage shortly after my surgery, but not since.

I was sleeved on 5/6. Down 44lbs to date. I hit a 3 week stall last month. It was extremely frustrating but I hung on cause I could tell I was still losing inches even though the scale was not budging. Additionally I now have regular BMs. My only major issue is still drinking Water so I have been making/ drinking infused water. That goes down well. As far as meats are concerned, I am able to eat everything. I also exercise at least 5-6 times a week for an hour. Absolutely grateful for my sleeve and wishing everyone continued success.

Hello Fellow May Sleevers! I was sleeved on May 13th and experiencing my 2nd stall. What I was wondering is if any of you are having trouble eating lettuce. I tried to eat a salad last night for the first time and oh did it make me nauseated. Did I try lettuce too soon?

[getnhealthyintx 281]

I was May 7th I still cannot eat leafy stuff.
