3 month WL STALL



Recommended Posts

Hi I'm feeling disappointed and I don't know how to make things better..... I haven't seen any loses in about 3 months. I went to my doctor and he told me to take CLA and liquid creatine which worked for a week than nothing . I mostly eat eggs--- whites when possible, grilled chicken and sandwich wraps .... Any advice would be great

I would go see a nutritionist and go through a weeks worth of your food to determine what might be preventing your loss. I see my NUT monthly to keep me accountable. I do have to pay out of pocket for that though. If you find that it is not your food, then you might what to have some blood work done and check if maybe you have a hormonal issue. From what I understand weight loss is about 80% diet and 20% exercise, so make sure you exercise frequently and change your routine every 4 weeks. I really wish you the best of luck and please keep me updated.

I'd definitely see your nutritionist and discuss your diet.

Do you note down everything you have, calories, Protein, carbs etc etc ?

Barring a medical problem, three months without weight loss isn't a stall, it's maintenance. If you aren't, you need to carefully log everything you are eating (weigh and measure your portions) in a program such as myfitnesspal. "Sandwich wraps" are notoriously high calorie and high carb with all that bread and usually stuff like mayo, cheese, etc. This will help you figure out what's going on and come up with a plan of attack to get back in weight loss mode.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
