It is normal in fact you will hit many stalls through out your journey. .I up my protein intake and sometimes up my work out too...try eating fish. .or any lean protein. ..

I am 9 months out an had to be rushed to er..after blood work and a ct scan I was told I had a small kidney stone...completely shocked me..I read about the calcium and vitamin d and the effects of it...I was given vitamin D prescription because I am deficient I wonder if that caused it..I was gicen meds to help pass the stone..will keep you posted. ..hope you are well now

Sugarfree jello...crystal light...I also was allowed cream of wheat (strained and really runny) ...protein shakes and protein drinks (syntrax nectar fuzzy navel)...chicken broth...all these made it possible to get through the liquid stage. .

Totally normal! I'm 8 months post op and I have a stall every other week. .I guess its starting to slow down cause I'm closer to goal. .be patient. Eat right and exercise!

Hi ladies..so again I thought I had yet another yeast infection but after much self examination and research I think I have what is called cytolitic vaginosis (sp)...do read up on it..since we are losing weight very rapidly our hormones are pretty imbalanced thus causing our ph balance yo fluctuate especially weeks before our periods...I decided to try something new an easy to relieve the burning and itch immediately I had comfort...baking soda! I made a paste with just baking soda n water put some down there..threw on a panty liner and within minutes the burn and itch...gone..apparently baking soda helps with the little know condition we woman are orine to getting and often is mistaken for a yeast infection..however yeast infection therapy can sometimes aggravate the problem even more when there is no yeast Infection present....I am so happy to share this info with you but if you still feel like its something other than CV do go see your doctor. ..

They allowed me to have crystal light flavored water...it helps. ..also protein shakes were not a problem if they are super cold..I like premier protein chocolate. ..on liquid stage I was able to have cream of wheat and broths..

Its a lil heavier. .lasts less days and not painful at all...

Take a deep breath. ...we all go through stalls ..I actually have one every other week. ..don't dwell on the 2 lbs you've gained...focus on the total weight you have lost..emotions are normal. ..just sit back and instead of saying "I can't eat that doughnut"..say to yourself " I don't want or need that doughnut"..trust me temptation is everywhere we just need to have self control and think of that reason why we did this in the first place!

Oh my goodness. .I'm also 7 mos post op and have had this ongoing problem since surgery .its so frustrating...I just took my second dose of Diflucan today and the burn and itch still there I seriously hate it...especially because it stops me from being intimate with the hubby...

I get about 100 g a day my shakes each are about 26g protein plus my bars are 30 g..I want to say that 60% of my protein is from that and the remainder from "real food" ...I completely agree with you though...I know many doctors have different plans for their patients. ..my dr has me on this plan and luckily I have been doing really good...calories however are a different issue...I am supposed to be between 800 & 1000 and sometimes I barely reach 700...

Syntrax Nectar fuzzy navel...premier protein chocolate shakes...Bariatric advantage chewable multivitamin ( for first 2 mos) then I switched to Centrum. ..

I'm 7 mos post op and I get no less than 3 protein snacks a day which include shakes

Stay away from carbs as mych ad possible. ..are you still taking vitamins??? Remember vitamin D helps promote weight loss ...up your protein also..
