So, let's talk about plateaus!

I am about 3 months post op and have lost around 36 pounds or so. I am pleased with my progress, but today I was thinking and figured out that I haven't lost hardly anything the last 3 weeks.....not one measely pound. As with any diet, I know people hit plateaus, but do banded people hit them this quickly? I am very strict with what I eat, try to drink water, and walk 2-4 miles per day. Are there any suggestions on how to get over the "hump" so to speak? How long did your plateaus last?? I am really not a fan of this sudden change in loss!

I have been on the same plateu for a very long time the scale just started moving after many long months dont know what to tell you.

I had the same problem. The advice that seemed to work for me was to vary my calorie intake and my exercise. Good luck.

I'm with SageTracey on this. I have hit plateaus a few times in my journey so far and changing up my diet a little bit and varying my exercise routine seems to kick start the loss again. Keep the faith, you are doing great!

Good luck, everyone!
