Stalled 4 months out



Recommended Posts

Hey guys. I was sleeved on 10/6/16 at 284lbs. I'm currently 204/205 and have been stalled for like 2 weeks. I run 3 miles 5-6 days a week. Any advice on breaking this stall?? I want to get under 200!! Lol

To break my stall, I upped my calorie intake. I was actually eating ice cream and still losing weight.

I was sleeved a couple weeks before you and I'm just coming out of a month long stall. I don't know what caused the stall to break, but I will say that going shopping and buying clothes in a smaller size really helped my psyche...and the day after I did that, my stall broke.

(Shopping breaks stalls!!! LOLOL)

I've stalled a few times, its normal. My longest so far was right at 4 months! I stayed at 171 lbs for 3 weeks. Yet, my clothes were still getting looser. hang in there...your body is just adjusting!

Funny... I have the same surgery date (10/6) and I'm also stalled.
It's been two weeks. I have increased my Protein and will see what happens. I'm sure things will continue to move eventually so I'm waiting it out. After a 42lb weight loss I will not complain.

I broke an old stall like that. It didn't work this time though

So it must just be a normal point to stall. Hopefully it'll pass soon.

      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.
