Stall... Stall.. Stall



Recommended Posts

Ive read about the stall on here and thought well I hope I dont get one of those or if I do it doesnt last too long.... When I 1st started reading about the 3week stall I was like 'Nooooooooo'... And now going on my 3rd week Im mordified!! Ive been at 162lbs it seems as if forever. I was really hoping to be down to 155lbs or less by now. And I kno there's no time frame or exact amount of pounds u'll lose by a certain time BUT the way I had been going. I was just hoping to be a certain weight by my BIRTHDAY in 7 days. Dont look like thats gonna happen. Damn stall!!! Nonetheless, I look and feel great. Just wish the scale said the numbers I want to see and not this darn 162 again... Need this to pass already????

Stalls are a perfectly normal and natural part of the process. The best thing to do if they upset you is to make sure you are getting in all your Protein and Water and to stay off of the scale.< /p>

I've been at a stall for 5 weeks but I know I've lost inches. Some clothes are much looser and I feel the lost inches.

It's still hard. I'm hovering at the 200 lb mark. I think there is a mental component to this stall for me. And the honeymoon easier to lose weight period is over. I can eat more and a few carbs (mostly crackers) have slipped into my diet. I tossed them out tonight. They are siders for me.

This is a critical time for me not to get discouraged. I will renew my effort and pay attention to what I'm eating. Stick to the plan and trust that I can do this!!! And wait for the stall to end.

      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?
