I'm 4 weeks post op and have lost 27 lbs. I've been the same weight for over 10 days!!! I thought the first three months you drop significantly. What is this?!?!

it's normal. just the way the body loses weight. not in a straight sloping line, but a messy, stair-stepped pattern. it's normal. it's normal. focus on something else. get out of your head. make good choices and let your body do what it is going to do without criticizing it at every turn. I don't believe in 'stalls'.

First of all. Protein is the backbone of weight loss esp. with this program...If you are not getting enough nourishment your body will shut you down and in a hurry...It is protecting you from starvation and that is a normal reaction...Nothing strange here..

The less you eat your metabolism slows down as well and fat is restored in the tissues for safe keeping.....

Once you start taking in protein and Water and Vitamins..Your body will relax and you will start to lose again...

Right now look at it like this..Your body is taking a much needed rest from everything it has endured through this journey so far..Stay on target, and keep going...and soon your body will say..I am still being fed..I am okay and I can release weight..

Don't you think the body is an amazing machine to be able to care for you like this!!! I do!

Also do a search here for stall you will see that there have been tons of threads just like this.

Thanks everyone. Going to try new things and hope it works! It's sucks killing myself in the gym and nothing.....

Speaking of caloric intake…I am 3 months out, lost 50 pounds since 9/23/13 sleeve surgery, a total of 75 pounds since pre-op diet and now I am stalled. So, at this point does anyone have any advice about how many calories and how much Protein I should be getting daily? Thanks

Exercise is the key to still loosing I am 3 months post op got sleeve on 9/30/13 and I am 65 pounds down I exercise a lot and I still do my protien shakes for bf everyday
