This Monday I'll be 6 weeks post-op. I was losing 1-3lbs a day, I haven't changed a thing, but now I have only loss 2-3lbs in the past 2.5 weeks. I understand there will be stahls or plateaus everyone hits, but this soon and for this long?

The first month is always to highest weight loss, and then, for most, it gradually slows down. If everyone lost 1-3lbs a day for the duration, everyone be at goal in 2 months. You are doing great, just try to look at it in perspective...would you lose 2-3 pounds a week on your own before surgery...

Don't be discouraged by stalls. Remember you could be losing inches! I always measure my hips, arms, waist, and neck on the 3rd of every month to see how many inches I have lost. That way if I become discouraged at the number on the scale ..I go and look at the inches I am losing! Makes a huge difference on my outlook! And remember, you didn't gain the weight overnight. It just takes time to get it off. Patience grasshopper....it will come...

I hit a stall about 2 weeks ago (Am 4 weeks out now) and have been on it since. I have not lost anything in 15 days, but have been continuing to follow the plan. I would be thrilled with any pounds. Your loss will probably pick back up. Don't let it get you down, our bodies just need time to adjust. You're doing awesome, keep it up! =)

I feel so much better after reading this...My first two weeks post-op I dropped 25lbs, which amazed me. Now, at the end of week 3 I actually gained a pound back. These stalls must be pretty common. Thanks for the perspective, now I can chill out a little!

I've been stalled for almost 2 weeks! Today was 5 weeks since my surgery and it's really starting to make me think I'm doing something wrong! But I'm not as I log everything I put in my mouth :/ I will be patient as all the veterans say to be and just wait for something to happen I guess???

I feel your frustration. I am 3 1/2 weeks out and this past week I have lost a big fat 0. It's even more frustrating that I was super active this week. I think I'll take piplulas advice and start tracking my inches lost.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
