Only lost 10lbs - WTF

[mg22fpb 6]

Have you tried Isopure from the Vitamin Store. Its clear and tastes like crystal light. I have grape orange and green tea. I drink it over ice 40 grams for 16 oz .

Protein is so important.. imake sure that i get that in if nothing else. After awhile u adjust to the taste.. im only 5 weeks post op and have hit a stall in weightloss for s week now and have worried a little as well.. but agree your body is in shock and it will start to come off again... have u tried adding like a sugarfree pudding to your shakes. Helps the taste to me

I went threw the same thing but you will see it drop as the months go by

I had my surgery in March and lost about 60 pounds in six months.

But everyone is different but you will see the result hang strong

Oat meal is loaded with carbs and you may want to stick with low fat Campbell's cream of whatever Soups . Lots of Water and walk to move that body . I'm having the same problem with Protein . 2 weeks out today ! I've lost 17 but nothing on the 2nd week hugs it gets better I hope

So now that I am on regular foods I figured I could go to the big boys of Protein make up for all that I have missed the past 4 weeks. Guess what - Cant tolerate Salmon, tuna or eggs!!! SOOOOOO upset over that! Salmon and eggs have always been 2 of my favorite foods. I ate grilled salmon at least 3 times a week..and there was never a bad way to cook an egg in my book. Well they all just come right back up! I am scheduled for an upper GI tomorrow so hopefully the cause is a stricture ( have had regurgitation issues for past couple of weeks even when it is just liquids) and not just my body saying heck no to these! If that is the case I am screwed!

Oh - and the Quest bars that everyone was raving about...they taste like lightly seasoned cardboard! lol. I have 3 cases I have to get down - so I am making myself eat 2 a day...

Am so glad someone talked about short term weight gain after surgery. I have gained about 8 lbs. and thought this was impossible. After all am eating practically nothing. I have only been out of surgery for 5 days. Looking forward to some weight loss. Now weigh more than when I went in the day of surgery. So is this common?

[mg22fpb 6]

I hope it solves your problem. If you come to another stall just remember we sometimes have to trick your body to lose weight. I did some light weight lifting and increased my cardio for a few days and also drank a lot of green tea and I broke a stall. I was stuck for 8 days that only just over a week out. Now I lost another eight or nine pounds so it helps a lot

OK guys - need some MAJOR support! I am now 3 weeks post op and I have only lost 10lbs! Lost those in first few days but since then the scale has not moved!!!!! Please tell me others are having same issue! WTF am I doing wrong? Fact is I am not eating but maybe a total of 1 to 1-1/2 cups of food (if that's what you want to call it) a day. I have not had good luck getting in the Protein. My counter looks like a GNC store with all the different protein powders I have bought - but NOTHING tastes good enough to allow me to drink the whole damn thing. I get in a few sips and I want to vomit! I am eating oatmeal for Breakfast and have had pureed something for lunch - today its bruinswick stew. For dinner I eat the remainder of the can if I can get that much down. WHY the hell isn't the scale moving!!!! Did I really do this to myself and spend 30K just to lose 10lbs, be nauseous all the time, tired all the time, and regurgitate daily???

You must get protein in everyday at least 60. If not your body thinking you starving it.

It's called the "dreaded three week stall". Most people go through it. Hang in there, the weight will come off soon!

[mg22fpb 6]

It did..green tea...a little lifting...and some cardio... down 21 lbs now 4 weeks.

You may not be able to eat some foods yet like the fish and eggs you mentioned but try again in a few weeks as your tummy heals pending there is nothing medically wrong... watch your carbs, check out the world according to egg face and bariatric Foodie for good simple Protein recipes for all stages not to mention ideas on shakes... Quest bars are best warmed in the microwave for a few seconds also check out their websites for recipes... unflavored protein as you have found out does have a mild taste but some of the things I use it in sugar free Swiss miss hot chocolate, Pasta Sauce and I add it to my skinny vanilla latte (decaf) don't start with a full scoop use half or less and increase ..good luck

[Roostertail2 98]

_{Sending Quest bars back for refund! lol ...so glad they have 100% satisfaction guarantee!!..Well didn't have stricture, Dr prescribed liquid reflux meds to coat my stomach to see if that helps. Doing much better past few days! I found Atkins frozen dinners have now become my new favorite things! Packed with Protein so I am ALMOST able to meet my goal each day without force feeding shakes down my own throat! scale has also moved - weigh in this morning and I have lost a total of 26 lbs since surgery!!! YEAH!!!! Only 85 more to go!}

_{I may get to the end of this journey as a starving, bald headed, dehydrated, constipated, saggy ass and boobs shell of a woman - but I am going to make it! lol}
