No physician should ever yell or put down their patient. They are not you, they don't walk in your body, and we are all different. He should be there to help you. So he should be there to guide you possibly in a different direction to help you to get those remaining pounds off. I would explain what I have been doing to lose, which is not working, so what am I doing wrong or what can I do different to make those pounds to come off. Yelling at you is not the answer that is for sure, it doesn't take any pounds off. It just makes you feel like a failure. (I switched physicians because of that attitude). I tell my doctors that we are not any different, if I wanted to have spent the money I would have been a doctor. He/she also puts her pants on the same way I do, one leg at a time. But that is just me.

Yes! I can help . I was stuck at that point for 2 months. It took 3 days going back to mostly liquids - Protein shakes, Soup etc and exercising 2x day for about 1 week. You body needs a jump start. . If that doesn't work you also try to eliminate all carbs and sugar for a week which will also jump start your weight loss.

Please let us know what the doctor told you, it would be helpful to those of us who will be experincing are own stall as we move along. Thank you.

Well doc didn't yell at me... He was pleased that I didn't gain and suggested I go back to shakes and build up to solids again and try different forms of work outs. He thinks that my body is just comfortable at this weight and if I want to start losing again I need to change up my routine. For example instead of just walking I should try jogging or at least carry a heavy backpack when I go for my walks.
