FINALLY found a way to break a stall!



Recommended Posts

I am so disappointed with myself. I started off great, then I had a blood clot and just was focus on not bruising myself or falling. Now, I have gained 10 lbs and still haven't reach my goal. I haven’t exercised, but now I am trying to do something each day. My two year surgerversary is 4/16/2016.

Has anyone else come back and met goal after a long stall and weight gain?

Thanks

I have had several stalls and every time I get so frustrated!!! I am in one right now!!! I went back to Protein shake, 20 oz Water, a Protein for lunch(2-3oz), 20 oz Water, Protein Shake, a protein for dinner(2-3oz) and I have been kicking my butt at the gym. Last night 1.75 miles on treadmill and 7.75 on stationary bike. Today I woke up and weighed, finally got past the 191.6-190 mark by hitting 189.8!!! I was so excited!!! I normally do weights every other day, I think I am just going to hold off on weight training for a few days and just burn as many calories as I can for the next few days then add weight back in.

Hope you all found a way to be positive and keep journeying along.

Me and another WLS friend are doing this starting today. http://5daypouchtest.com/plan/faq.html#9 I hope that it will help me get past my now 3 week stall. So far today I have only had Protein shakes and tomorrow will be the same. Wed I will be back on soft solids again and by Thrus/Frid regular food again. I hope that this will help so I can finally get to that 250 and under club for us giant guys.

I also have DVT and pulmonary embolism. I am currently on coumadin. I have been in a stall for 3 weeks. Maybe I need to get more Protein and drink more Water. My mindhas been so preoccupied with the clots.

      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?
