Stall ... Plateau ... Whatever, This Sucks



Recommended Posts

This is my first post. I needed to check in with my fellow December people. Im pretty frustrated, because I'm going on 6 weeks at the same weight. Now mind you I'm doing great. Started at 301 and I'm down to 240, but I've been there now for almost 7 weeks. Anyone else stuck in this 3 month stall? I'm trying to keep my spirits up, thinking this is what the body does and it will strt losing again, but that mindset started to erode after 4 weeks of stalling ... Grrr. I think that I just need to give it more time.

I've been stuck too, I've lost 4 pounds since the beginning of February :( I just realized I dont think i am drinking enough Water, so im going to try harder to do that. Im getting in all my Protein, and am active (probably not as much as i should be though). I've read that you might be able to jump start the weight loss again if you load up on calories and fat for one day, and then go back to eating regular, that might help. I think thats what got me to lose the 4 lbs in one week last month. Just keep your head up. Everyone keeps telling me they can see the weight coming off, even though Im not losing lbs. Im trying not to get discouraged the scale isnt moving, and i barely weigh myself anymore, cuz i get annoyed when I am not showing any loss.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
