Stalls are normal, unfortunately! Just keep doing your program and it will start moving again! I recently went through this. I'm 8 months out also and have 25 pounds to goal. One of my friends send me a great inspirational message that got me through the stall. "Instead of focusing on the negativity of the stall, look back and see just how far you have come" That's all it took and she is so right. I've lost 113 and that is a great accomplishment and if I can do that I'm not going to sweat a stall! Chin up, and push through! You got this!

So many of us do this---

It is just a little number on a scale. Compare that to your brand new lease on life--the high-quality life you most likely had lost due to your obesity. If we all gave ourselves a mini-challenge to eliminate the word 'STALL' from our vocabularies for just ONE MONTH--what a wonderful world it would be !!!

Hang in there. Celebrate the great and wonderful you have done.

      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.
