Need some help and guidance. Was sleeved Nov 12 2012, to date I've lost 135 lbs. Started at 408, down to 273. My goal is around 208 to 220. Have about 65lbs to go. For the past several months I have not been able to lose anything!!! My weight has fluctuated between 273 to 278. I had plateaus before and seemed to be able to break them. But this stall is really frustrating!! I've been watching what I eat, get my protein in everyday, and have been workin out during the week. Don't know what to do?? Need some guidance and open suggestions? Thanks John.

What do you call several months?

What do you call several months?

About 3 months.

The closer you get to an ideal weight the harder your body will fight to hold on to any stores of fat. This I know. But since I have yet to be sleeved, I am not able to advise on how to work past a stall. I read a post this a.m. from a lady who was doing the 5 day pouch test. She was sleeved 2 years ago and had gained some weight back. She was looking to get back on track and had decided to do it. Basically you go back to liquids for two days, then pureed food for two days then soft food on the fifth day. Sort of the condensed version of post op. Might be worth a try?

lost 135 lbs. - 408, down to 273. not been able to lose more!!!

woo hoo

party dance, party dance

135 lbs, down, down, and dirty!!!!

sorry you've been at a stall for a while

sure you are continueing to eat and drink right, scale just doesn't want to move

maybe go on liquids for a week, shake things up

go back to shakes???

change your calorie intake up a bit, eat different variety of food

tummy could be telling you to switch things up - "then i'll let you lose some weight"

good luck guy
