if you're sticking to your program, then it's just a stall. Most of us have them periodically during out weight loss journey (the first one is usually within the first month for most of us , in fact). Just stick to the plan and stay off the scale if you need to. They usually break in 1-3 weeks.

if you follow your program, you WILL lose weight. You are likely just in a stall. They are very common. I had several of them along the way.

I didnt realize how down this would make me with this stall and no I havent been following the program. I only eat three bites. I have been eating the wrong three bites.

Stop eating three bites and start eating healthy and following your program. Takes time. You didn't gain it all in a few months...takes a while to lose it. You cannot reestablish a healthy metabolism by starving yourself. Nor can you reestablish a healthy metabolism by eating too much of the wrong food. Quit with the extremes. Talk to your Dietician. Make a calorie goal and a protien goal. Get some suggestions for menus. Get off the scale for a full month and eat what is recommended. Exercise. Stop the number obsession and focus on healthy eating. You'll be ok. I lost weight SUPER slow. Stalled for weeks sometimes. But I got there. You will, too. If you're feeling like you're at the end of your rope with the process...it might be time to see the therapist. ****, I STILL need to see the therapist sometimes to stay on track. Breathe. Everyone stalls.

      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.
