Only 65lbs since surgery in May.

[kissez 9]

Hello All,

I had my surgery on May 30, 2014 and I've only lost 65lbs and now my weight is at a stand still. Help!

ONLY? 65 pounds in 6 months is an amazing weight loss. I think you are being a little unrealistic about your body's ability to keep functioning and shedding weight more quickly. Weight stalls are a reality of this process. Some people stay at the same weight for a month. If you are following your plan and exercising there is nothing else but stay the course. Know that I think you are doing absolutely great! Congratulations on your weight loss. you must be feeling so much better.

And I have had stalls it's just goes with the procedure, stay focus and do as your doctor says,you are to hard on yourself in-which you should be congratulating yourself .

I'm in a similar situation but I also know that I'm not exercising enough.I have only been exercising on weekends and I need to do more during the week.

Go back to the basics (this is also me telling myself).

Drink lot's of Water

Keep a food journal (very important!)

chew a lot

chew small bites

Protein first

60-90 grams of protein/day

stay away from sugar and flour!!!

30-30-30 (the Water food numbers)

etc.

Best of luck. I'lll get back on track, too.
