Ok- I need help. I have stopped losing weight at 4 months out. 61 lbs down. Here's the kicker... I am disabled (I have MS) can't just get up and walk. So exercise options are minimal. My caloric intake is about 800 calories. Any words of wisdom of what to do to help kickstart my weight loss again?

Hello,
I am just about 5 months out and I've had a few stalls along the way..... they happen.
But for the last couple of months I have been steadily losing weight.
What is working for me:
Keeping my carbs under 35 grams a day. Making sure I get 100 grams of Protein a day. Drinking at least 80 ounces of fluids a day. My calories are between 800-900 daily. Doing those things, I generally lose between 3-4 pounds a week. I track everything with myfitnesspal, it helps me a lot.
I am also not exercising at all, unfortunately. I have 2 incisional hernias (one quite large) that give me a lot of pain. Also dealing with constant abdominal pain and Constipation. I can hardly wait to lose a little more weight and have my hernia surgery, because I can't wait to be able to exercise.
Hope that helps.

I'd like to think she was distracting me from surgery, like the night before, yes, the night before..
But, I think she is just a lech! During that whole "surgical prep" time with the weird medical wipes she was saying bad stuff and I was like, this is the LEAST sexy place ever to do that! (Florescent lights, cranky nurses, etc). But, I guess I made up for it with booty grabbing. LOL

When I was moved to my room after surgery; I could have held my friend/lover's hand..but no, no-my drugged self kept running my hand up and down her upper back thigh into booty territory. Yes, even right after surgery, on a morphine pain pump..I love the booty! LOL
The pony-tailed nurse taking vitals and such finally noticed and to her credit didn't say a thing. hehehe
(I will note that in pre-op, my friend-lover decided to take advantage of my topless/paper robe state when the other nurse left the room. (Bad Girl!) When the nurse sprung back in, we popped apart. THAT got a matron-evil eye from that nurse. She was decidedly very reserved and coldish towards my friend after that. I hadn't experienced that before. I am sure some of it was annoyance, since this was wery wery seriwous..or maybe because we both are 40 year old long haired femme moms. Perhaps she felt deceived. I don't care-she did get my IV in on the first try and past a little stricture in my wrist-which was more important!)

Sleeved 12/7/16 and down total of 57 lbs since day of surgery. Think I have hit a stall, scared to death. Went to the NUT,says I'm not eating enough. [emoji853]. I'm trying here. Congratulations to the December Sleevers, I know this is t always easy!

Surgery on 12/22. Sw 247. Cw 186. I've been stalled for 3 weeks but I'm patient. There's no way I can't lose with how little I eat!!

I'm on my preop diet too, my surgery is December 6
