Hi,

I am 11 weeks out from surgery. I have lost 44 lbs :) However, I have not lost any weight in 2 weeks.

I also find myself eating the same foods....lots of protien shakes and greek yogurt.

I ate some club crackers and humus and Cottage cheese as well.

I also had a 2 week stall at the same time. Your body has to readjust to all the weight lost. Then all of a sudden it will be ready for another drop and the weight will fall of again. You will have stalls all throughout. Very normal.

Keep positive a don't forget to measure once a week so the stalls don't discourage you as much :)

food ideas...I am 12 weeks out today. I am a low carb eater so you can adjust to fit your lifestyle.

Breakfast: I usually have Greek yogurt, scrambled egg w/ turkey sausage, cottage cheese or a Protein drink

Lunch: deli meat and cheese, veggies w/ Greek yogurt ranch dip, leftovers from dinner, cottage cheese w/ marinara (heated up, sometimes w/ turkey pepperoni and mozzarella on top)

Dinner: I eat whatever I make my family, only will modify for myself. Last night, chicken breast w/ jalapeño havarti on top, grilled w/ mushrooms, small dollar of mashed sweet potatoes (I had to skip the salad, no room). Night before was tacos. I put my toppings (seasoned ground turkey, black Beans, cheese, salsa and Greek yogurt) in a bowl instead of tortilla. Tonight will be baked tilapia, steamed broccoli, carrots and cauliflower and leftover sweet potatoes.

Snacks: almonds, string cheese or cheddar stick, Protein frappe or iced coffee, occasionally a few wheat thins smeared with a Laughing Cow Lite wedge, Protein Bar if I'm in a pinch or on the road.

Hope this helps a little. Also, when I'm not losing or losing only a little, that's when my body changes the most.

I like the hummus that are snack size with the pretzel thins you can find in the deli. I have been eating a lot of hb eggs but am getting bored with the same old food. I found high Protein Quaker oats oatmeal which is good 10gms of protein.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
