I am 11 months out. I know it's normal to hit a plateau at some points. But has anyone else been so close to there goal an just stop loosing?

You don't offer much information. How much have you lost? How long have you been stalled? What's your goal? How far away from your goal are you? How much are you eating (calories, Protein, carbs)? How much are you exercising?

I think you should look at your accomplishments!!! Wow!! 140# in that short of time is incredible!! Ask your trainer to change things up a bit, work a new routine, change things around and that can help a lot. But girl..you have done amazing!! keep that hard work up and your chin!! :)

Wow! That's awfully low cals. I can't help but believe that you will blow through that plateau eventually.

You might want to look at this post I just made. Not saying that plan would work for you. But you could consider trying something different like that.

Congratulations on the weight loss.

I have to agree that 900 calories seems awfully low for someone getting 90 grams of Protein a day and working out regularly. Is 90 grams a day your protein goal?

Mine is 100 grams a day and I hover around 1200 calories a day.

How are you doing on your fluids?

What does your NUT say?

Stalls seem pretty much normal.. You've lost 140 pounds in less than a year.. in about 10 months.. that's 14 pounds a month; the average is 8-10 pounds a month, so you are doing really well.

I normally workout pretty heavy 5-6 days a week. I would add some cardio in between your trainer sessions, but you seem to be doing well.

      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.
