Has anyone gone back to shakes after several months just break a stall or get your weight loss moving again? Maybe for a week or so? Obviously I know I should talk to my doctor first, but I curious if anyone has done this and how did it work out for you?

I do count calories and I use my fitness pal. That calculator shows 2200 calories and I eat about 1200 a day.

I had my surgery 5/31. Starting weight 215, currently 175 and have been stuck here for about 2-3 months. I changed workouts, foods, everything. Drinking so much more water than ever in my life too, but the scale just isn’t budging. Anyone have any tips? I eat mostly protein and some vegetables. Hardly any carbs. I don’t eat too late at night and I’m relatively active because I work 2 jobs. Someone, anyone, help!

American Eagle had the best high rise jeggings ever. They hold everything in!!

I’m on omeprazole already [emoji20]

Anyone?

I have not handled it yet. Haha. My work pants are almost at the point of falling off and I'm trying to hold out until after our wedding because clothes are so damn expensive and I'm just going to shrink through them anyway (fingers crossed)! I hear you. I hate shopping and it's a chore to try clothes on. But congrats on losing 84 lbs! Amazing!

I'm struggling with head hunger today, and most of the week. My stomach feels full but I keep feeling hungry and I know it's in my head. What do you guys do when that happens? I'm so stressed out about my wedding and I think thats part of the problem. Normally I'd turn to food! And my dr. just cancelled my appointment and I can't get in again til 11/6 because of the wedding and honeymoon since my schedule is so crazy finishing up the wedding plans and I'm also working 2 jobs and going to school for my masters. Any advice is extremely appreciated. Thanks. [emoji173]️

Also, I sent you a PM

I had that problem too. Not as bad but I had it. It helps to meal prep and when you get those urges, eat something you already have made. When you do that, the urge and hunger will go away because you've gotten something in your stomach. And since it's a lot smaller, it takes less to do the trick. Be strong and eventually you will break the habit of running to a fast food place. You can do it. We all can. We just need a little help and a little support!

I just posted his video. He's awesome!

This YouTube video explains why we're stalling and why we shouldn't be working out as much as we are. I have been killing myself in the gym with no success and this video really helped me cope with my stall and realize what I have to do to break it. I wanted to share it because I think it will be really helpful for some other people too!

This is what I do now. No carbs. Small protein meals every 2-3 hours.

Thank you! I will change up my routine and do this. [emoji173]️

Thank you [emoji173]️ I really appreciate your response. I will cut back at the gym and keep eating the right things and hopefully something will happen!
