TooBIG.net 36 Posted March 8, 2018 Just curious for some of you what your longest stalls were and how far along you were post-op that you had your first stall?I had bypass on 10-17-17I started my journey in Jan of last year I was 581 I was 475 on surgery dayToday I’m 404 but I have been 404-408 since 2/18 Still doing all the right things or at least I think I am. I’ve also tried upping and lowering my calories no luck. I’m trying to not get down about it but I just have this goal of being 399 or less and my first major milestone and to be at 404 and having this stall like I have been is getting to me. Just curious any advice or encouragement any of you other guys have for me as I keep telling myself it’s only temporary but how long does temporary have to last.Thanks everyone.

Haven’t had the surgery yet but 2 if my friends have had pretty much the same dilemma and the nutritionist recommended upping the Protein Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lainey1983 6 Posted March 8, 2018 I have stalled a few times myself it is normal for sure can last a week or a month but don't worry it will get start going down again soon. I noticed if I don't get enough Protein in daily I will start to stall also so protein i think is important... hang in there it's part of the process.. and even when your not loosing weight on the scale your body is getting smaller in inches ....

TooBIG.net 36 Posted March 13, 2018 Hey guys thank you so much. Took the advice on Protein and I've hurdled my stall and now down to 398. So happy. Thank you both for responding 3 Mrambition30, cdwashington73 and Mattymatt reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
