Hi,

We all hit plateau's It's ok! Just check that you are getting in all your Protein, Water and that your caloric intake is upwards of 800 calories. Also, check that you are not "stopped up" and going poo-poo at least every other day. If not, dulcolax will help. I went through it about 1 month - 6 weeks after surgery and still have trouble once in a while.

My plateau/stall lasted for a month, but then I started back up. Your body has to adjust to it's new idea of losing weight and an stall here and there, is to be expected.

You are doing really well! Keep your chin up This is only a bump in the road!

Plateau's are normal, Water is a culprit. So are regular BM's I like the Fiber gummies I get from costco. Water is also your best friend. I wish my weight loss had been as rapid... ah well....

Geez - I'd kill to have lost 70lbs in less than 9 weeks. I had surgery on 11/04 and since surgery I've lost 17 lbs. I weigh 317 lbs.... It is scary ... and I can't figure it out. My first plateau started on the third week...and this is the 5th... and I've only lost a 1lb this week!

I'm eating roughly 800 calories - and drinking at least 64oz of Water. I feel like I can eat more at each meal...and I also feel like I'm hungry all the time....ok not all the time...but a lot of the time.

I'm so frustrated!

Surgery date Nov 24th. Had my first vomiting episode since being in hospital. Not good. But walking around for about 20 minutes feeling better. Still having trouble getting everything in. But must be working down 33 pounds and feel ok. Could probably walk more if weather would cooperate.
