I had my surgery on July 9 . Since my surgery I have lost 25 pounds. Now I am stuck stuck stuck!!! I have been 218 pounds for the past week. I do everything right. I drink lots and lots of Water I sip all day long.

So for example

Breakfast around 8 AM I will have a scrambled egg white.

For snack I will have a 4 ounce Protein Shake with 2 ounces of water and 2 ounces of skim milk

For lunch I might have a quarter cup of sweet potatoes or a quarter cup of tuna made with a teaspoon of light Mayonnaise and a teaspoon of fat-free Italian dressing.

For snack again I will have a 4 ounce Protein shake again with the water and milk

And for dinner I might have a quarter cup of puréed chicken Soup with vegetables in it. Or the tuna again.

I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Why am I stuck?

25 pounds in 20 days and actually only 23 days if scale hasn't moved in the last week? That is a lot if weight! Your body is trying to catch up and you are in the dreaded 3 week stall. Tons of posts about the science behind it. It will move again but meanwhile you are nearly ahead of me and I am 8 weeks out tomorrow. Be patient. It's a marathon not a sprint.

Hi ivarae, I am new to this forum and looking for some support. I got served exactly a month ago and my weight has stalled like almost two weeks now. I read that your weight got stuck at that stage too. What happened after that? What did you do to get off the stuck weight? I hope I get some reply. Thanks

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
