Is anyone stalling again? I'm stalling at 167 pounds I've lost 48.4 pounds so far. I had my surgery on August 4th, I've stalled once in the 3 week stall, but I really want to lose 33 more pounds maximum!! Idk if I could do it in 5 months! Is it the way I'm eating? I eat everything but in small amounts some days healthy some days not. I still eat carbs, but still get my Protein in. I don't track calories but I have not gained any weight, and some days I eat nothing and other days I eat a pretty good amount.

So is anyone else stalling? And do you think it's possible to lose 33 more pounds in 5 months?

I understand your frustration. My pouch was in August 21, 2015, I was stalled for 6 wks

Scared me. I thought I had stretched my stomach. My doc had me do all shakes for 24 hrs. Then liquids for one day (chicken broth, scrabble eggs and Jello for that one day. Then shake ( at least a total of 90 grams of protein). Five pounds the first weeks

Now doing 5 small meals, no more than 1500 calories. After that first week, now back to 2 -4 lbs a week again

Water. Water water

Blessings and Good luck

I am at the same weight for 3 weeks, not one pound more. I haven't gone to the gym and have been eating a little bad so its totally my fault. We have to kick it up people and start exercising more!!!!! :-)[/quote

I was sleeved on August 21st 2015. Highest weight 349 current weight 260. I lost 89 pounds so far and I am very happy about it. My goal weight is 170. My question for the group is what are you guys eating now approaching 5 months post op. This is my day:

Breakfast:Premier Protein Shake

Lunch:2oz Fish/Chicken/Turkey Meatball with 1 ounces of vegetables

Dinner:Premier Protein shake

Snack:2oz Chicken/Tuna salad with 2 whole wheat crackers

Fluids: 67.6 ounces of Water (4-16.9oz water bottles from costco

Exercise: 60 min cardio 3-4X a week depending on the week

I haven't started strength training yet. Thinking about hiring a personal trainer when I hit around 230 pounds. Then the trainer can help me get to my 170 goal plus tone

we are almost exactly the same! I had surgery on August 27,2015--started at 348 and got down to 256 (although NYE put me back at 261) :( EXCEPT I haven't done too much exercise other than walking a couple times a week. Keep up the good work and congrats on all the weight loss!

Thanks UalreadyKnow! I sometimes feel as though I'm eating to many calories. Do you mind sharing What a typical day for you looks like?

Thanks UalreadyKnow! I sometimes feel as though I'm eating to many calories. Do you mind sharing What a typical day for you looks like?

np! I feel the same way sometimes!

Breakfast--6oz coffee with Protein Powder

Lunch--star creations (any flavor) and 3-4 Brussels sprouts in garlic butter

Snack-- pepperoni chips (1serving)

Dinner--any lean meat I make and about 1/2cup or less of veggies

Snack--another coffee with Protein powder or a Quest bar

Don't know if I'm taking the right approach, as my NUT is having chemo and has no replacement yet but I'm kinda doing a sort of Atkins/south beach diet thing. Bad part is... I beat myself up if I do "fall off track" and have some no-no carb, and I HATE that feeling of failure.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
