    jmar23 got a reaction from nikki7 in Loss of appetite.   
    You really need the nutrition from the shakes... I know they get old fast for some people but you should really try (read force yourself lol) to drink them. My appetite did go away mostly after the first 2-3 days after my body went through ketosis an realized it was still okay. Was a jerk the first 3 days thou otherwise I was fine.

    I knew the second I saw the thread title someone would bring up GENEPRO. It is impossible to cram 30 grams of anything into a tablespoon. Lol

    I stalled for 2 months at the 65-70 ponds lost point. I thought I was done losing. Stick with it. I went on to lose another 45 pounds after that. Months 6 - 12 post-op were much slower loss and a lot of stalls, but it still happened. There is no reason you cannot hit your goal.

    Similar loss here. Really haven't changed any nurition or exercise. I guess it's a continuous cycle of getting balanced and then loosing pounds, repeat.

    So I was sleeved on February 20th an all has been well. I did have a small stall (4-5 days long) around the 2-3 week mark. Now I am almost 2 and a half months out an my weight loss has slowed a lot with two decent week long stalls in the past 3 weeks. I lost 2 lbs between them but it is back now. Is this normal or am I doing something wrong? I follow my diet to the T. I do struggle some days to get my Protein in just because I can't eat that much. When I do manage to hit my target I seem to just end up gaining an losing the same pound. Just wondering if this is normal? I did start back to shakes today to try and break the stall since some have reported that helped. Not the full liquid diet but mostly . Anything else I can do to get past this?

    I agree with deactivatedfatgal... you look great! Don't let others bring you down. Especially since some of it could be from there own insecurities an them being intimidated by your weight loss an beauty that leads them to try and pick at you to feel better.

    Carol, people like that are the reason I keep mine private. I just don't need the negativity from people. Got enough to deal with going through the surgery, recovery, and maintaining for me to have to worry about negative people.

    Your welcome. I mix mine with skim milk which raises the Protein count to a little over 60. Ask your NUT if that's okay since some are different than others.

    Meet your targets consistently and make sure you are eating enough calories. At 3 months I was eating 800 - 1000 calories daily per my surgeon's recommendations. It helps to get the Protein in by eating mini-meals every 3 - 4 hours.

    Thanks for the comments. Glad to know it's normal. I know I shouldn't sweat the stall but I was hitting my goals more often than not so I was concerned. As for weighing everyday I am working on getting better at not doing it. The NSV help me not want to run to the scale everyday burst here lately the stall junk has me doing it more often than not. I guess I will just keep doing what I'm doing an wait out the stalls. Thanks for reassuring me that these things happen!

    Isopure low carb. 50 grams of Protein in a 12 ounce shake with no chalky aftertaste nor is it overly sweet. I am a fan of the Dutch chocolate flavor.
