Stalling

[bs19gal 57]

So I seem to have the honor of being the first into a stall but hey someone had to be first. I did talk to my NUT just to make sure I had my target numbers right and to check on calories as we didn't really talk about that before.

She said that its very common especially for women to have stalls fairly early on, the longest she has seen it last is about 3 weeks. She also reminded me that I lost 30 lbs just before surgery and my body knows that as well. So the stall will break and I will be off loosing again sometime in the next week or so max

She did say that my calorie intake was a bit low at around 350/400 and I should be trying to up it towards 800 a day. Keep getting all the liquids in and if I can bring my Protein up over 80 or even higher then great but as long as its over 60 all good. I feel better about going for more calories with cross fit I really feel my body would need more with also playing so much golf and biking so I will definitely work on that.

Even though the scale is not moving I do feel the inches are still coming off, finally last night I walked into a pre league social and people actually commented how much weight I have lost ... thank the lord 45 lbs down and nobody had mentioned it before. Even though most of the weight is pre surgery I do think I have lost most of the inches post surgery, and the tape measure backs it up. I also just had to apply for a new Visa for a trip to india its been two years since the last time OMG comparing the photos is night and day I cant believe how fat my face looked back to my old self now ... very happy about that

You might just be the first to admit it. I am in a stall right now. Stuck at 19 lbs post op and not moving for about 4 days now. I'm also right there in calorie intake. I have a one month educational class coming up and I'm going to ask about calorie and Protein intake. I'm only managing between 350-400 calories a day. 60 grams of protein and hardly any carb. I feel like it's impossible to add more intake. My team restricts us to 3 meals a day and a Protein Drink (half in the morning, half in the afternoon). The protein drink is 160 of my calories.
