I know that everyone stalls at some point... I have been stuck at 205/206 for almost 3 weeks now...

I eat the allotted calories/carbs/etc that was set by my nut..

I recently started going back to crossfit... 2-3 times a week... It is a very strenuous exercise program...

The scale won't move. I am so frustrated! I don't want to stop here!

I am able to wear a pant size down from where I was a month ago.. But I'm worried that my body is just being stupid due to working out again...

I will be talking to my nut in about 3 weeks at my next appointment...

Ideas?

It is probably because you are building muscle by working out. If you are losing the inches from your body, that is still a good sign, though I understand when you are close to onederland I'm sure its frustrating. Stick to it and focus on your body feeling better!

Have you been taking your measurements? I dropped about 10 inches, but didn't lose any weight at one point in my first year. I found it was better for me to make a photo journal and keep my measurements rather than continue to weigh myself - there are so many things that can make your weight fluctuate daily. From what you write, you're doing lots of things right!

      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.
