Am i going to lose more?

Hi!!! I got sleeved on feb 16th I've lost 28pds so far but have been stuck at that for about 20 days :(. So is this it? Can't get rid of this darn stall I drink water/protein the way in supposed to. And I also exercise/walk everyday 2-3 miles. Has anybody gone thru this for this long?? I'm getting very very discouraged :(

I was sleeved March 6th. I've lost 30 lbs with 14 being pre op. I stalled at the start of week 3 and have stayed there for 3 weeks. I could feel my body changing the first two weeks of stall but now I'm just stuck. Totally frustrated. I tried on everything in my closet and cleared out two bags of clothes that were too big two weeks into the stall. That encouraged me for a while but now I'm frustrated again. I finally took my measurements for the first time last night. I'm hoping to see progress there again. I'm also taking pictures of myself in the same workout outfit every two weeks for comparison. Patience is not a virtue I have. Struggling to get 60 oz of water in. But otherwise staying the course. Did I mention I am frustrated?

I have only been stalled for two days so I am not complaining....yet. I was sleeved on 3/11 and lost 25 lbs since then...But, I was looking at MyFitnessPal and noticed I am very high in fat- from Pita chips and eggs. So no more of the chips and limiting eggs to egg whites only. I tell myself I am only eating four chips with my hummus, but it's too much fat. Logging what I eat has really helped me!!

I was sleeved in 3-11-13 and having a bit of a stall these last few days. I am down 29 lbs but last 2 days have been slow????????I think its my water intake so I'm focusing on that today

I hate the stall! My scale hasn't moved in a week. Hoping it will move again soon.

Someone here recommended me to do the liquid diet for a couple of days. So I started yesterday and today I weighed myself and I lost 4 pds!!!! So yea that made my day!! Y'all should try it, it worked for me hopefully it works for y'all. GOOD LUCK!!!:)

DonDddddddxdDon't get discouraged. You will lose more. You just need to shock your body by doing just the opposite it is used to. If you eat more carbs, cut the carbs and increase protein. If you eat more protein, cut the protein and eat more carbs -but only good carbs. No junk and cut all sugar. Drink only water!!! I cannot stress that enough. You should break the stall.

Thanks for ur advice!! I think my problem was that I was eating too many bad carbs.

I know what you mean! So so frustrating

I was sleeved on feb 6th and lost about 28 lbs and since 3 weeks the scale hasn't moved. I haven't been great with walking or Water but that can't be it? Can it?

I'm feeling so discouraged. My pants don't feel loose either :(

The same thing happened to me:(. But I did the liquid diet for two days and the scale started to move I lost 5 pds. U should try it, this might break ur stall.

I know I gets more discouraging when I get on here and these some of them that have lost 40-50 pds by this time. :(. But we're in this already so all we can do is keep trying and not give up. I wish u the best luck and we r gonna beat these dang stalls!!! Lol I'm thinking of trying the liquid diet once a week see how that works I think we just have to play around with it.

This also works in the opposite! I'd been sick and was eating like a bird. I wasn't losing either. When I got better I was pigging out! Mostly good choices, but not all good choices and lost a pound a day for about 8days! When your body thinks we are in starvation mode it WILL store fat! When it thought I was gonna feed it, it began to let go! Plus I was up and about and not in bed 24/7

Woohoo broke the plateau from hell (a month). Doc said gotta keep calories at 800 or less and I was watching carbs. Some of those high protein meals were in excess of 1000 calories, no wonder I wasn't losing! Live and learn smh

Congrats. Glad you broke your stall they can truly be a pain in the but. Cheers to more losing
