Measure your body and don't let stalls bother you so much. I lose stall, lose stall, and I have learned that I usually drop 10-15 after a stall. This is your body adjusting and its natural. My dr. said you will be less likely to regain if your body adjusts to the new weight.

I was sleeved on 12/19/16. I am down 32#. I have been stalled for the last 10 days. I am not too worried as I have read this happens at about this timeframe. I am just glad I can wear my regular button/zip jeans and not just elastic waist pants. If we keep doing what we are supposed to, then the scale will start moving again.

The stalls aren't as bad as they look to you...I swear I was stalled for 3 weeks and then 2 weeks another time but in 16 weeks I've lost 60 pounds

      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.
