Weight loss plateau! HELP!



Recommended Posts

I need any and all advise. I am 9 months post op. I lost 35 pounds and then nothing! I haven't changed my eating habits and even with fills I've stopped losing weight. I walk approximately 10,000 steps a day. No carbs. Has any one else experienced this? If so what should I do to boost my weight loss again? I was thinking to only do Protein Shakes for a couple days but not sure.

Are you tracking your calories? How long have you been stalled?

Yes. I'm about 1200 calories daily. It's been over 2 months.

If you are not already doing this, I would recommend getting a kitchen scale to weigh your food and a calorie tracking app. Verify that your daily calories are exactly what you think they are.

You also might want to go to a doctor, explain your situation and get blood work done to make sure you don't have anything working against your weight loss goals.

If everything is normal and your calories are consistent, consult your nutritionist about further restricting your calories.

Great job on the 10,000 steps per day btw.

are your clothes getting looser or too big?

if so, you are losing even if the scales doesnt show it yet

stay the course, continue doing what you do and it will eventually

(inches lost are true signs of weight loss)

sounds like you are doing great to me.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
