Damn scale!

[meSparkle83 153]

I stalled for 2 weeks, added more Protein and calories and viola, lost 6 lbs last week! You can do it!!

Can you give me a few tips on meals? I'm trying to add more calories but I am at a loss of healthy foods.

How far out from surgery? What is your Protein, caloric, Water intake? Are you eating anything you shouldn't be? Are you exercising?

I'm a little over 2 months post-op.

I don't eat much so I know I'm under 1,000 cals. I'm hitting close to 75-100 Protein n yes, I've discovered potato chips ( I wasn't too big about them pre op)

Yes I exercise daily.

My scale isn't moving but I know I'm shrinking be cuz clothes aren't fitting but I want to see the numbers..

I track everything.. every bite of chips.. What are your carb counts.. Carbs should be low, protein high. Drop the chips.. Drop the juice.. too much sugar.. You could also be in a stall, they will happen.. but definitely watch those carbs/sugar.

meSparkle83,

Yep, full commiseration here! There’s not much you can do besides reassure yourself that you’re doing everything right. Are you eating right, drinking enough Water, and exercising? If so, all you can do is be patient. If not…back to the basics!

Good luck, and as long as you’re doing your part, the scale will do its part, eventually.

I drink the Syntrax nectar Protein drinks, I eat eggs for Breakfast.. Yesterday I stopped at Wendy's and got the chili for lunch. Stay away from carbs, upYour Protein and walk walk walk.

I weigh daily. I had an almost 3 week stall and it was so frustrating. This week I lost 9 pounds though. No clue how it happened, but it did. Be patient and keep up the hard work. Eventually your body will stop struggling against you and it will fall off.
