I just realized I'm at a stall.. I was 199.4 on August 27th and 3 weeks later I'm 191.5 .. How long does it usually last .. I'm better then I expected seeing as how I haven't been under 200 in a loooonnnngggg time .. Just want to know if I'm doing something wrong other than the few little things I have noticed .. CARBS just whole wheat crackers and toasted bread once but the crackers are frequent.. And potatoes once all approved by my doc.. Help if you can

First of all, you are losing which means you are not stalled. A stall means no weight lost and even some gain.

8lbs in 3 weeks is actually great! Keep in mind as you move forward the weight loss slows way down. I am lucky if I lose 8/10 lbs per month, and I do mean lucky.

Even though crackers, bread and potatoes are approved just know that the carbs in them can in fact slow down weight loss. Try avoiding them for the next couple weeks and see if it helps speed things up for you.

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

      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! 😞
