Switching to solid food in the middle of a stall



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone!

Stuck in a nasty stall, where I've actually gained a couple of pounds since Monday, and today I switch to solid foods. My boss is bringing in pizza to Celebrate my transition - this is at my request pre-stall (me and my big mouth, LOL). And Sunday the family is going out to an all-you-can-eat brunch. I've already kept my Breakfast today light with about 1/2 cup of homemade chicken Soup. And dinner will be light too, maybe just a little sashimi and a Protein shake. I want sushi, but the rice might not be a good idea right now, especially since I'll be having carbs at lunch. Sunday I plan on a few shrimp and whatever fish they have that looks good.

Anyway, any suggestions on how to transition to solids while in the middle of a stall? Should I keep the solids to a minimum (if at all) until the scale starts moving again?

Thanks so much, I hope everyone is doing OK.

Be well…

I'm find that when I hit a stall, nothing is sure fire. It's discouraging I know... Just stay true to your portion sizes, Protein first, Lo carb, and sipping Water in between meals... Our basics is all I have to offer. I try not to get upset over stalls and have just come to accept them for what they are, but sticking it out and not giving in is the vital key! Hoping your transition goes smoothly!! :)

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
