FRUSTRATED ....... stall

I am only 9 weeks out of surgery, I am feeling great however for the past 3 weeks I have stalled. I have gained a pound, lost a pound, for 3 WEEKS!!! I am eating my 'soft' foods, getting in my Proteins, my Water, upp'd my exercise (walking) and still no change. I know all about the 3 week stall, that lasted about 6 days for me but not this 9 week stall. It's so frustrating and I feel like I am already a failure ..... anyone else experienced this?

I didn't have a 3 week stall, but I am having one now at week 5. I expected this, I just hope it doesn't last long. I am anxious to take off another 20lbs.... Like you, I just keep following my plan, and know that eventually scales will move.

Can you give us a sample menu of what you are eating? That might help greatly. :)

My daily routine is pretty much the same. Egg beater for breakfast with protein shake (costco Premier shake) about an hour later. 100 calorie yogurt and laughing cow cheese at lunch and another protein shake an hour later. 100 calorie progreso soup for dinner and either apple sauce or sf Popsicle or protein drink after dinner. Seriously I eat pretty much the same thing day in, day out. Only difference is I sometimes sub the yogurt for a boiled egg. I feel like I am eating all day!

Lose the yogurt and the apple sauce. The yogurt being low cal is probably making up for taste through added sugar. The apple sauce, although seemly healthy is another form of sugar. Replace those with more protein or something 100% sugar free and little to no carb. The sodium, even low sodium, in the Progresso soup might cause some water retention. For exercising, carry some weights on the walk. That's my two cents ;-)
