Any Tips

Hello everyone,

I had my surgery 8 weeks ago. I started at 430lbs and Im currently at 380. The issue is that Im starting to have cravings for sweets and now only consuming 2 meals per day. The last recorded weight loss was 2 wks ago. Ive maintained the same weight but am afraid Ive stopped losing. Has anyone experienced this?

Yes, I have experienced the same thing and I am 7 weeks out. I went through the standard 3rd week stall and started losing again; however, I have hit another stall and am hoping that my body kicks in and starts losing again.

I hate these stalls - they are the worst feeling ever especially when you are only taking in 600-800 calories.

Good Luck to you! Let me know if things start moving for you again. I'm hoping soon for myself...

2 meals a day doesn't sound good. You should be eating 3 meals and 1-2 Snacks to maintain relatively stable blood sugar levels. You are likely craving carbs because your blood sugar is so low more often than not.
