FINALLY found a way to break a stall!



Recommended Posts

I am so disappointed with myself. I started off great, then I had a blood clot and just was focus on not bruising myself or falling. Now, I have gained 10 lbs and still haven't reach my goal. I haven’t exercised, but now I am trying to do something each day. My two year surgerversary is 4/16/2016.

Has anyone else come back and met goal after a long stall and weight gain?

Thanks

I have had several stalls and every time I get so frustrated!!! I am in one right now!!! I went back to Protein shake, 20 oz Water, a Protein for lunch(2-3oz), 20 oz Water, Protein Shake, a protein for dinner(2-3oz) and I have been kicking my butt at the gym. Last night 1.75 miles on treadmill and 7.75 on stationary bike. Today I woke up and weighed, finally got past the 191.6-190 mark by hitting 189.8!!! I was so excited!!! I normally do weights every other day, I think I am just going to hold off on weight training for a few days and just burn as many calories as I can for the next few days then add weight back in.

Hope you all found a way to be positive and keep journeying along.

Me and another WLS friend are doing this starting today. http://5daypouchtest.com/plan/faq.html#9 I hope that it will help me get past my now 3 week stall. So far today I have only had Protein shakes and tomorrow will be the same. Wed I will be back on soft solids again and by Thrus/Frid regular food again. I hope that this will help so I can finally get to that 250 and under club for us giant guys.

I also have DVT and pulmonary embolism. I am currently on coumadin. I have been in a stall for 3 weeks. Maybe I need to get more Protein and drink more Water. My mindhas been so preoccupied with the clots.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
