4 months post op..advice?

I am 4 months post op today. Started at 289 and am now 222 at 5'3". I've had a plateau at 2 weeks and 3 months but only lasted a week. I have now not lost any weight the last 2 weeks. I've bumped up my protein and am taking in enough but not to many calories. I am happy for my loss so far but am so discouraged by this long stall and am finding ways to blame myself. Anyone else experience this?

Yes. I definately have periods where my body rests in between losing. The longest was 3 weeks. If you stay the course and follow the plan your body will start releasing weight again. Also I think the closer we get to a good weight the more things simply slow down. At least that is what I hear others saying.

The key is to stay on the plan and follow the rules, if we do that I am certain the scale will start to move. I just finished a 10 day stall and in the last couple days the scale has started to move.

Good luck!

I had a stall at around 3 months, the answer for me was to slightly increase my calories. As I lost weight I was able to increase my activity and I found that my body needed an uptake in calories. I increased from 1200 to about 1500 and that did the trick.
