Stalls

I have read tons of posts about stalls and thought I was mentally prepared for the infamous "three week stall". Despite all that, when it happened to me, I got a little down. It's so frustrating to be eating so little and not lose any.

***just venting***. :-)

I know what you mean I am 5 weeks post op and I have not lost any thing for two weeks now. I started to get down a little but then come here and read that it is pretty common so I am just doing what I am supposed to do and waiting to start losing again. I have lost 60 lbs in 6 weeks Three weeks before surgery and three weeks after so I am sure that is a big part of my stall. It's all good though I am sure we will start losing again soon

Part of me feels like binging on chocolate since I'm not losing anyway! But I won't.....

Its going to be 4 weeks tomorrow that I had my surgery,I have lost 21lbs since(21lbs in 4 weeks) , I guess that's good but I guess i was expecting it to magically fall off.I went for 5 days without a single pound being lost and assume im in the stall phase. I have signed up with La Fitness and use the pool 5 days a week,I walk 2 miles a day in pool and do some cardio workout as well,2 days a week I'm doing advanced Aqua Aerobics .my diet has changed to where I can eat soft solid foods finally,meaning I can eat chicken or fish,which if fine with me,I love both.I hit a stall last week for about 3 days and found out it was due to not having enough calories a day,I was only taking in 592.2 calories a day.I have adjusted with the solid foods to where I'm doing closer to 1200 calories a day now and weight is coming off again(Thank God). all my shorts and pants fall off me now and the ones I can wear looks like I'm wearing a tent or a skirt....lol....anyways all is going as planned , just not as fast as I would like.

I keep wondering about my calories. My friend has been successful on 500-600 calories, so that what I'm doing. Maybe I should eat a little more.

Vent away, that's okay too. This whole thing is VERY frustrating at times.

And I did my measurements and my belly is actually bigger.
