Help Needed To Move Past A Plateau

I had my sleeve surgery on June 12. I lost 30 pound pre-op and have lost another 50 post-op. I am thrilled, thankful... and now seem to be stuck. It's been about 2-3 weeks with very little movement weight wise. I have increased my exercise. I still have 100 pounds to go so I sure don't want to stay at this weight. Any tips on helping my body move forward with my weight loss? Thanks!

Stalls happen. Patience is key, but I know that's easy to say, harder to do. Try throwing your body some curve balls for 2 or 3 days. Go back to liquid diet. Completely change your workout to something you are not comfortable doing. Or take a couple of days off from the gym altogether. Up your water. Get more sleep. These things may help, may not. Most of the time the stalls end themselves.

How long does your plateau have to last in order to be considered a "stall"?

Also check to make sure your diet includes a little bit of good fat like olive oil or a piece of fish high in Omega 3s.
