Stalled for almost a week



Recommended Posts

Well after losing 36 lbs in like 17 days my body seems to have said "stop the craziness!!!" lol. Monday I was 36 lbs down tuesday I was up a lb wed up another, And this morning back down to 36lbs lost. So I know it will pass, but wow did I get spoiled losing so much so fast lol!

So things that I figure are factors. I am not getting anywhere near enough fluids and protien in. Though thelast two days I have gotten in about 40 grs protien and 60 oz liquid. I am considering attaching a garden drip system to a hat so it can drip Water in my mouth all day. Lol. That would be a site to see. :-)

I also have had really high salt content this week, I have been having a can of potted meat for lunch, 3 oz 15 gr Protein but rhe salt content is really high soni suspect that is part of it. Anyway I was glad to see the scale go down today, hopefully it will

Continue that direction

Stalls are normal. Do watch that salt and the water/protein intake... it will catch up with you, but I think that perhaps losing so fast is what is not normal... so enjoy and take care!

Yeah, it will pass. My stall lasted a week and a half fluxing between 176 and 179 now it fluxing between 174 and 176. Keep in mnd that it is all Water weight because you are not getting in near enough calories to actually gain fat weight. Good job!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
