Hi

I am at week 8 and been in a stall for 2 weeks now. I am with you I do everything I am suppost to do. I read on here from some to eat more, walk more and get in more protine done all of this and still no weight loss. My doc said this is normal my body needs sometime to blance out form the quick weight loss. Still scary when it has been a lifetime of diet faliure. Keep it up and stick to it.

Im right there with y'all.

Sleeved 4/4/12 and down 35lbs.... but man.... its a S-L-O-W past 2 weeks. Saw my doc for a post-op last week and basicly told me to get my butt movin' cause there is no room for stalls on the plan! :) (Gotta love tough love)

I guess I gotta make a comittment to hit the gym more than 2x/week and lay off the carbs.

We can totally do this, we have the perfect set of tools and a great support system on this forum! Best to y'all!

I'm with you. 8 weeks out, down 30, stalled for 2 weeks. Saw doc yesterday, he said to walk more. I'm a teacher so I plan on working out when school is over. I guess my goal this week is one walk and next week 2.

I'm stalled for about the same. See my thread here. I'm posting all the change-ups I've tried, as well as the ones just suggested today (after the others did nothing). If you aren't already, try a site like myfitnesspal and log EVERYTHING, no matter how minor it seems.

I am glad that Im not the only one at a stall. I was sleeved on 4/4/12 and I havent lost any weight for two weeks now and Im doing everything that Im supposed to. I walk, eat less than 800 calories a day, get in all of my Water and my Protein and yet the scale wont budge. Im losing inches but I want the scale to move(down of course)! Im so frustrated!!

I am a little over 5 months out not far from my goal.. When I get in a stall I eat Protein only and no carbs (not even fruit) and I break my stall right away. I also drink tons of MIO flavored Water everyday.

I was sleeved 4/9 and have only lost 21 pounds. I feel like I lost a lot at first and am not losing now. I'm so frustrated. It seems like everyone else is losing a lot faster.

Perhaps you're now building muscle!? I'd say as long as you're doing everything right....no worries. Keep up the great work!

      tl:dr at bottom,
      I could use some advice. I went to see my dietician today (not a bariatric surgery dietician, I can explain why I am seeing her if you want to know). She knows I am going to have weight loss surgery as long as I hit the goal weight my insurance told me I need to be at. I have to be at the goal weight by June 24, 2023, in order for my insurance to pay for my surgery.
      I had a weigh in the doctor's office a couple of days ago and weighed 301, my scale at home said 302. However, on the same day, the scale at a friend's house said 313. 
      I knew I had this Dietician appointment two days later and I knew she would weigh me. I continued to weigh myself at home (after getting new batteries) and I was at 302 then 299 and today at home I weighed 303, right before my appointment, when I got to her office I was weighed and it said 313.
      I am concerned about what to believe since the doctor's office and my scale show similar numbers. I also bought a new scale today and it said 313. 
      The Dietician told me I needed to eat more protein, which honestly I struggle with. she said I needed 150 grams!!  I said are you kidding? that seems like a lot.  She used my weight to come up with this number. 
      Should I really be trying to eat enough protein for a 300-lb person or should I be eating protein for a goal-weight person (mine is 170)?   
      also, my clothing is loose like I lost the 20 lbs mine and the doctor's scale shows, and not 10 lbs like everyone else's scale shows. Also, I have always naturally been more muscular even when I was 120 lbs and did not eat any protein aside from what is in plants. 
      tl:dr- should I be eating enough protein to support a 300lb person or should I be eating protein for a "normal" sized person? AND should I trust the Doctors scale more so than the Dietician's scale?

        Hi!

        I would love to be your accountability partner. I had the sleeve in 2021, so maybe I can give you some insights.

        Please message me back, looking forward to hearing from you!
