I lost 87 lbs.since I was sleeved 3/12/14. The last 3 weeks my scale is just stuck. Not going up but definitely not going down either. I get in approximately 60 gms Protein a day. But do struggle with Water. Any suggestions?

Any idea how many calories you are getting? From reading these forums it seems like when people start stalling about 5 months out, it's because they aren't getting enough calories.

Ugh! I hate that! My body has set points at which it will plateau for up to two months. So frustrating. I have been reading that there are doctors who believe plateaus are caused mostly by poor nutrition--are you getting all your Vitamins in??

I got stuck too after a year. Lost 75 lbs then gained 4. It can be demotivating; however, you have to change something. Maybe more exercise. Or more frequent meals

@ You had surgery 7 months ago and you're down 75 pounds? That's amazing!! Have you met with your nutritionist or a personal trainer to look at what you're eating or how your exercise is going??

Betty...U are doing great. Since I posted about the stall I have lost another 25 lbs. Although it coming off slower now than a few months back it is coming off. I'm down 117 since 3/12/14. I do have to work out harder and big thing I noticed it getting enough hydration. Drink plenty of Water, hit your Protein mark & you will pick up again. Good luck & you can always private message me. I would be happy to share info

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
