3 week stalled - suggestions???

pamiam824

you can walk/exercise - drink more - never hurts

but........

stalls happen to all of "us" :angry:

newbies - to veterans

got to get used to the stalls - periodically they might/will happen :angry:

a stall can last anywhere from a few days, to weeks - even a month, or more :angry: ) -hopefully not that extreme

easier said than done but..........

you gotta "ride the wave" - the stall will break, i promise :)

Would i lie to you??? :)

no way!!!!

"God Grant Me Patience, Just Hurry Up About It" :)

good luck :)

Yes as proudgrammy stated...stalls happen. Sad but true....I too have been stalled and my surgery date was 3/19/13. My Dr said this..." Angela, drink that Protein, stay hydrated and move!" He said most generally our stalls are due to our body trying to stay hydrated and the Protein we take in is getting used up due to dehydration....so I'm really working to hydrate and protein up!

Hang in there!!!!!!! You can do this ;-)

Thanks guys! I must say I'm not meeting my Protein. Or Water goals. I feel so full all the time. But I'm going to push harder to get my fluids in. Been going to the gym and taking walks in my neighborhood but I'll increase that also and pray for the stall to pass quickly. I've lost 29 lbs so far and just want to keep this ball rolling!!

Proudgrammy said it best - ride the wave. ( good one ). I'm riding the 3 week stall wave too. It's a major bummer. How can one not lose weight while eating between 400-800 calories a day?? I dunno but the weight is bound to come off eventually. Hang in there! I'll be hanging in with you.

I'm with y'all too. Only mine started on week 4. Wednesday will be 6 weeks PO. It's frustrating but I'm just hanging in there. Started couch 2 5k last week and am increasing fluids. Hopefully ill get back to being a loser soon. ;)

I'm stalled again...and trust me it gets to ya and makes you feel like screaming! But I'm not giving up, I won't let it take control over me. That's what is the most important, don't give up on the end result. This page has some of the strongest people here, we took control and made the decision to get healthy....we ALL can do this!!

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
