Plateau No More!



Recommended Posts

Like everyone I hit a plateau around 4 months where I could only lose about 1 pound every two weeks. I saw the doctor for my 6 months check-up and he said "you're eating too many carbs". I was only taking in about 30-50 a day. Eating healthy foods only. Drinking Water but not what I should have been. Maybe 30-40 oz a day.

I went back to 64 oz of Fluid a day and 20 grams of carbs a day and the weight has been falling off once again! Woot! I'm getting close to my goal. 38 more pounds to go. Doesn't near as overwhelming as 115 lbs was!

I love my sleeve!

That’s awesome for you. I have been the same stinking size for a few months now. I started working out in October and it halted my weight loss like a stubborn mule!

My working out partner has plastics and she is out of commission for a while and I started to lose again. Me and exercise are not friends.

LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
