4 months out and stalled

[amartyn1 74]

Hi , I'm 4 months post op , down 68 lbs and now stalled . I've lost 4 lbs in the past 3 weeks ! Any one else experience this or gave any advice ? I'm eating 70-90 gms of Protein a day and 60-90 oz of Water . I work out 4-5 days a week ... getting frustrated and Amy advice would be greatly appreciated !!

If you've lost 4lbs in the last few weeks you are not on a stall. A stall is no weight loss or even a small gain. My stalls usually last over a week, many have stalls for months. Sounds like you are doing great. The only thing you need to change are your expectations. If you were stalling I'd suggest upping Water. When I had a stall I just increased my water to 80oz for a few days and it broke. The longer you are out the slower the weight loss will be. same as you approach your goal weight. If I'm down 68 lbs at 4 months out I will throw a party! I find normal weight loss for me looks like a set of stairs on a graph, not a downslope or a cliff.
