I have stayed the same weight now for idk how long. It's getting old. I have tried my hardest to "embarrass the stall". I have been on a stall more then not! I'm even doing 48 hrs rest and nothing.... I'm afraid I lost all I'm going to lose. Has anyone stopped at 64 lbs?

I'm only 64 lbs down in 7 months. It's very disappointing to alter your body and still be fat!

that's more than 9 pounds a month! How much more do you have to go?

It sounds like you are doing great.

Are you tracking your food?

What are you eating? Are you getting in all of your Protein and fluids?

Are you avoiding starches, added sugars , and fried foods?

Are you taking your Vitamins and supplements?

Are you exercising?

Have you talked to your NUT lately about your concerns?

Without more information it is hard to offer suggestions.

If you've lost 64 and you have 54 more to go, then you need to lose roughly the same about that I did. At 7 months, I wasn't down more than 64 pounds either. It's a slow process and while stalls are annoying, you do eventually get through them. I got stuck between 165-170 for almost two months, which was almost exactly where you are, around the 65-70 pounds lost range. I added an extra hour at the gym, I really paid attention to what I ate, and eventually I dropped to goal weight. It took 18 months to lose 108 pounds of which the last 4 pounds took almost 4 months. That works out to 6 pounds a month. The sleeve isn't a magic miracle working trick- it still takes time, work, and patience. Time passes no matter what you do, so a year from now you could be at goal or a year from now you could have given up on goal and still be fat. In the end, it's entirely up to you and your actions. You can do it! :)

      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.
