Major Stall 11 months after surgery



Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone,

I had Gastric Bypass January 13, 2016. I have officially lost 128lbs. for the past few months my weight loss has slowed to a crawl. I was losing way more weight before now it just seems like a few pounds here and there. My goal is so close I only have 30lbs more to go. Any one have any suggestions to help bump the last few lbs away. I work out 5 days a week for 1 hour. I eat really good. Just dont understand why its so hard to lose the last little bit.

Any suggestions are much appreciated.

Thanks

Not that this will make you feel any better, but according to my dr, it is very typical for weight loss to slow like that. I have lost 120 pounds and have around 30 pounds left. Not sure what to tell you other than maybe shake up your diet an exercise a bit if you have been doing the same things for a while.

Define slow. If you are losing a lb a week or thereabouts. Celebrate. I would be amazed if I were down 128lbs by 1 year post op.

      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.
