Hi! I was sleeved August 17, 2016. I have lost a pretty decent amount of weight, but I haven't lost anything in the last two months. Since Thanksgiving, I haven't dropped a single ounce. I am still getting my Protein and Water in every day and staying in a good calorie range. I am active and have really tried to stay on track. I just cannot seem to bust through this plateau. I have an appointment with my doctor next month but I really do not want to go in without a single pound lost! Does anyone have any suggestions on how to break through a plateau? Should I change things up? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Whenever I have a stall that lasts longer than I think it should, I always call the nutritionist first, then the surgeon if I get no response. At one point, the nut told me I wasn't getting enough calories, I increased and started losing within a couple days.

I am also in a stall. I have not lost any weight since before Christmas. I am also trying very hard to stay on track. I have gone back this week to drinking a lot of Protein shakes except for one meal per day. After 3 days of that I have still not lost anything. I had my surgery July 13th and have only lost 55 lbs. I am getting very discouraged.

I agree with Chrmow. I've heard the same thing.

Hi all, I am new to this site and discussions. I had surgery in April 2016, so about 9

months now and along the way I have had some stalls though I have lost a good amount of weight. It is getting more difficult as I go along and I have a way to go to reach my goal. I've noticed a lot of posts are from new people who are in the "new phases" of excitement and things that are mostly positive, but I would like to see if anyone else is finding it more challenging with time.

I'm on this website to get support from others who are working through this life change, and to help

me stay focused on my goal. I appreciate any feedback, challenges, successes that any of

you are going through...

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
