I know this is common but I am at 4 months and I have had a stall this week. I can't seem to get back on track and motivated. I feel like I am eating when I shouldn't be. I sent my Nut. a list of what I eat on a normal day and I hope she gets back to me. I think my head is getting the best of me.

I feel your pain!!! This was me for 3 weeks!!! but I am happy to report TODAY the STALL IS OVER!!! I am almost 5 months out... (may 11 will be 5 months) and weighted in at 179 this morning...

I feel like for the last 2-3 weeks my brain was getting the best of me, trying chocolates... trying cakes... (we had 8 birthdays at work, all with their own wonderful cakes & desserts) it was a tough 3 weeks... but this weekend, I did all Protein I had Protein Shakes for 2 meals & just protein (shrimp, chicken, steak) for my other meals... I kicked up my walking - walked longer & a little faster... Hang tough!! get it out of your system, then get back on track - don't beat yourself up over it... just acknowledge it, and get back on track... you can do it... LOOK AT HOW FAR YOU HAVE COME!!!! Happy Monday!!!

Try not to be discouraged. You can push through it! You know you'll be OK after the stall is over!

How do your clothes feel? How do you feel (outside of the frustration). I'll wager you feel a whole lot better than you did 4 months ago. You got this!

Be well…

      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.
