Someone please help! Weight stall! (Again)



Recommended Posts

Hey guys! I need some advice! I was sleeved on May 13th, 2014 and I'm a little over 2 months out. I began at 330pounds and I have lost almost 40 pounds. I'm like super stressed. My weight keeps going back and forth in between 289 to 291 and it's driving me crazy. I really want to lose 110pounds in 9 months (by June for a wedding that I'm in).... I literally cried today because this is so hard for me. I work out for an hour on Mon, Tues, We'd, Thurs---- mostly cardio.... But I'm not sure it's enough.... Does anyone have any suggestions on a variety of foods for Breakfast, lunch, dinner, and Snacks? And exercise plans also? I'm so burned out from eating the same stuff over and over! PLEASE HELP !

Hi Jazzy I have not had my surgery yet but I've read many post about this subject . The common response is to make sure you're getting enough Protein. Many have stalls-but they seem to get over the hurdle within a few weeks. Please don't stress yourself out. 40lbs is great! You are averaging 20lb a month. Have you ever lost that much weight before?

Good luck, stay on program it will happen. Hopefully those who have experienced stalls will offer suggestions

Hi I just had my sleeve on Wednesday and taking the Protein Shakes and drinking lots of Fluid. Not sure how much I have lost but maybe you are putting in more calories than normal. Everything will pay off just look into foods that you can eat but of course Portion Control Is the key. As for me I am just in the liquid diet right now and been feeling full with only the Protein shakes, and chicken Soup that my mom has been making me. Good luck!! And you should be happy with what you have lost!!

      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.
