So after about 6-7 weeks, I’m finally on my “ stall”.. now I didn’t have a 3 wk stall. Down about 43lbs and 7 lbs away from the 100’s! However I’ve only lost about 1-2 lbs the last week or two.. major slow down since I’m so early out from surgery. I did increase my calories drastically going from puréed to solids but still not enough to plateau. I heard these are normal? How long do these usually last? Anyone experience a nice drop again from a stall?? Just need to talk this out so I’m not feeling bad that I’ll stay at this weight since I’m not on the heavier side of gastric bypass patients as my doc told me....

What are your stats I'm on the app so can't see if it's in the side

My stall ended. I did lose 4 more pounds this week. I strictly diet. Low carb. Low calorie, veggies and some fruit, Protein. I put everything in my app. I’m way under the guidelines my surgeon asked, but doing my best to up my calories and carbs. Struggling still with digesting most foods. :)

Similar starting weight. I was told light weights lose slower generally and may stall more. As we have less to lose. Keep up the good work.

      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.
