Stick with it......It has taken me just as long to lose my last twenty pounds as the first 100. The stalls get longer and the effort to lose the last few gets harder. Step up your exercises......mix things up a bit, so your bod doesn't get used to things too much and stay at it.....You'll get there. We both will...... ;)

The further out from surgery I get the harder it is to shake the pounds. I agree with recycled. Change up you're exercise routine daily. I'm right there with you. My body just wants to hang on to this weight. It has become far to comfortable with where I am right now. It will break. I understand the frustration.

@MsBeautyB4&After.... I also had my surgery June 25th @ 314pounds and I believe I have stalled at least 8 times and I watch what I eat, drink and exercise, but no matter what... I'm losing. Not at the pace I would like, but it is definitely coming off. Keep the faith and you will see.........

I'm 8 lbs from goal and stalled for 2 weeks. We just need to keep on keeping on and we'll get there. Good luck to us all!

      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.
