Stalls are a normal part of the process, even though we hate it and we may be doing everything right with exercise, water, protein, and calories. They still happen. Don't let it worry you.

6 months was on 5/1. Down 97lbs from 286 SW. 48 more to go. Sent from my SM-G930R4 using BariatricPal mobile app

Ok, great thread! I'll play! Lateral choices are what shore me up all the dang. time! I'm at the point where truly my life is about 90-95% Best and 3-8% Better and about 2% Good. I haven't gone "hog wild" eat the whole candy bar thing since before surgery. Hallelujah. The angels sang. Bad - A whole order or BWW Wings with Fried Cheese Curds and Fried Mushrooms Good - Having 2 wing flats, and 2 curds and 1 mushrrom with celery and blue cheese Better - Air Frying the wings at home and tossing with a zero calorie sauce to keep it lower fat. Air frying broccoli and cauliflower and making Grk Yogurt Ranch Dip. Best - Air Frying chicken breasts with a mustard garlic coating. Making a great salad with a few pumpkin seeds and reduced fat feta with some zero calorie dressing and a little avocado. __________________________________ Bad - Wasting an entire day on YouTube vids and FB and BP (sorry to say wasting, not really wasting...but losing myself in it) Good - I have yet to establish metrics for this parameter Better - Ditto Best - *sniff* Purgatory. Pure. And. Simple.

Crystal Light, Mio, 15 cal Minute Maid lemonade, green decaf tea, decaf Constant Comment Tea and some herbal. Oh yeah, also propel liquid Strawberry Kiwi. But water unless chilled- Yucky Poo!

An Observation to share 5 SIGNS YOU'RE DOING BETTER THAN YOU THINK YOU ARE 1)You're not the same person or same size you were a year ago. 2)You now have goals 3) You've experienced real hardships 4)You now have 1 or 2 close friends 5) You know God has still great things in store for you.

Great job!

It is awful but it will pass, 2 or 3 days of pain for a lifetime of losing weight!!! Sign me up I’ll take it!!!! Good luck to you

thanks, i'm going to try again and see what happens as a start and hopefully it was just coincidence i'm glad you both didn't have issues with it

OMG you did it!!! Congratulations GradyCat! Like Willy Wonka says, "I knew you would. I just knew you would!" 🙌 👏

Amen, sister! I pray every day for God to let me to continue to lose weight and be healthy and I thank him for getting me through surgery with no complications.
