I just got back to work after being out a month for surgery. I've been stuck at 220 for over a week and have even gained. Not sure how I eat 2 bites and I'm done. I'm eating mostly protein because that is all my pouch likes. I'll have a 30 calorie monster every once in a while for some caffeine. I don't understand this stall so soon. I walk but can't excersize a lot due to low energy. (which I will be talking to my surgeon about on Monday. ) Should I revert back to soup and protein shakes again? I'm getting water and I'm drinking 1 protein shake a day like my diet sheet says to at this stage. Any advice?

look up "three week stall". Almost everyone gets it, and it's not *always* at exactly the three-week mark. Sometimes it's the second week, sometimes fourth or fifth. But always shortly after surgery. Mine lasted two weeks - weeks 2 and 3. Then I dropped like 6 or 8 lbs the fourth week.

Thank you! I'll look it up!

Embrace the Stall!
