I tried searching for this, but I get sooooo many responses and none seem quite right...

I am in a MAJOR stall, and have been for about a month now. Eating everything right and approved. Working out 3-5 times a week.

I have only lost 11 pounds in 2 months and a total of 6 inches overall... Now while I KNOW that is still ok and is NOT a gain in any way shape or form... I just do NOT want to get stuck here.

So how many of you have gone back to Protein shakes in order to, well for the lack of a better word, "reset" your body and your weight loss?

Is this a normal thing that people do to try to re-kickstart the loss again? Something else that I should be doing??
Have nut appointment in 2 weeks....

How much are your exercising (25% of equation) and how many calories, Protein and carbs? (75% of equation)

exercise is 1 hour of crossfit

Protein - 80-90 grams

calories - 850-950

carbs - < 80

I REALLY try to get more calories in on the gym days.. but I can't seem to get over 950.. just do not seem to have any more room... also not exactly sure how many calories I am burning during crossfit

I think the secrets in the Water. I was stalling big time again and I drank a lot more water 2 days ago and just felt like I was going to lose. Was a pound lighter the next day. And all of a sudden I want more water.

      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.
