Help. Im in a weight loss stall



Recommended Posts

I've done great since surgery in May but I haven't lost any weight in two weeks. I'm down 115 lbs but now the scale has stopped. I did add some Pasta once a week but zero bread. I'm having about 750 calories per day and walking about 2 miles every am. Any suggestions?

Hi I would cut out all paste , how much Protein are you getting in as well are you getting in 64 ounces of Water? Your lost has been great You are getting in enough exercise so thats not the problem. If you are meeting all of the above I would ditch the Pasta for a Protein shake. Good luck my friend and keep us posted on your progress.

I don't eat it if it doesn't help me... Such as a Protein or Fiber... You get the idea. But I'd ditch the Pasta. Carbs you don't need anyway.

That's just my opinion. By the way.. Keep up the good work. When I have a stall, just keep doing what you know you need to do. They will clear.

Sometimes your body just needs time to adjust. I lost 100 pounds in just 7 months without a single stall up to that point. And then it came to a screeching halt. After a couple months with nothing else happening I had decided I must have reached my set-point but I was happy enough to be a size 10. Then the scale began to move again and I went on to lose another 20 pounds (I'm now a size 6). Hang in there! Maybe give up the Pasta as everyone has said. Maybe that will help. Maybe your body is just 'adjusting' as mine was. :-)

      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.
