Four Weeks Out And Two And A Half Week Stall

Hey, I'm going through something similar and posted on this same thing this morning =) I think we're both stuck in the dreaded stall. From some threads I've seen a week, some I've seen a few weeks, but there's a light at the end of the tunnel. After I posted I realized I had to do something because I was driving myself nuts. I had to put the scale away somewhere I can't get to it easily. I have a new scale coming in the mail in 2.5 weeks and I'm just gonna try my best to stay off the scale until then. The stall we're going through is definitely normal.

I am having the same problem retaining liquids. It's probably at least in part due to our hormones going crazy.

I am getting in protein by loading up all protein all the time it seems like. I have at least one 4-6oz protein shake a day, a protein supplement drink (15g protein isopure zero carb) once, snacks of something like cottage cheese or yogurt, dinner is usually some kind of soft or ground meat/fish with some soft veggies, lunch is usually a leftover of dinner from the day before.

I am trying adding a fruit or two over the day, maybe to bump up my calories just a little. I'm averaging around 500 so I'm thinking if I step it up to 600-700 maybe my body will get itself out of panic mode.

We can do this! Hang in there. One day we'll wake up and it will finally come off.

I am 5 weeks out I had my surgery on July 11th. And for the last 2 1/2 weeks I have not lost any weight. I am going to for sure get back on my protein drinks, and start getting in more water.

Had my surgery July 16th too! Same thing here and I was told by a sleever 4 mos out that I am prob not getting enough calories. I am soooo sick of the protein shakes and isopure though I'm not sure what to do.

new whey liquid protein from the vitamin shoppe..... Great way to get your protein....42grams in one shot! And they taste pretty great!
