Weight loss plateau! HELP!



Recommended Posts

I need any and all advise. I am 9 months post op. I lost 35 pounds and then nothing! I haven't changed my eating habits and even with fills I've stopped losing weight. I walk approximately 10,000 steps a day. No carbs. Has any one else experienced this? If so what should I do to boost my weight loss again? I was thinking to only do Protein Shakes for a couple days but not sure.

Are you tracking your calories? How long have you been stalled?

Yes. I'm about 1200 calories daily. It's been over 2 months.

If you are not already doing this, I would recommend getting a kitchen scale to weigh your food and a calorie tracking app. Verify that your daily calories are exactly what you think they are.

You also might want to go to a doctor, explain your situation and get blood work done to make sure you don't have anything working against your weight loss goals.

If everything is normal and your calories are consistent, consult your nutritionist about further restricting your calories.

Great job on the 10,000 steps per day btw.

are your clothes getting looser or too big?

if so, you are losing even if the scales doesnt show it yet

stay the course, continue doing what you do and it will eventually

(inches lost are true signs of weight loss)

sounds like you are doing great to me.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
