Are you tracking your food/drink? Are you getting enough Protein? Have you increased carbs or calories from liquor or drinks (soda, juice, etc)? You have to look at what you are eating and drinking? Schedule an appointment with your nutritionist to see if there's something you can do to kick start the loss again! You've done great to lose 85+ lbs in a little more than 5 months. It's just time to shake this stall up.

Congrats on your joyful and successful journey so far.

From time to time our bodies need a breather to catch up with what our brains are telling them to do. After so many years of eating "x" amount of calories everyday, and now all of a sudden----WHOA!! Your body is just can't keep up with the change that your brain is swirling at it.

Keep with your regimen. Be patient. Your "sand is shifting". Have you noticed your clothes fitting a bit looser? Are you breathing a wee bit easier. There are many stages of WLS. You know that ;)

If you insist on being a worrier, call your bariatric team and make an appointment to brainstorm with your Nut. Perhaps some tweaking is in order.

You are doing a "Maaaavelous job, Daaaaling". :)

I had surgery in February of 2016. Started at 399 and I'm down to 314. I'm also at a stall and up a few pounds after vacation. Stalls are the worst, and regardless if it's a 2 day stall or a 2 month stall, it feels like it lasts forever. Take photos and measurements! I almost guarantee that your body is changing! We've got this :)

I had my surgery on February 2nd, and I am currently stuck in a stall as well. It has lasted about three weeks (Saturday will be four weeks since I've lost anything). I'm not that worried, yet. I am going to shake up the exercise routine and see if that helps at all. Good luck, and push forward. We can break 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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
