Surgery 10/26/15, lost 40 pounds by 11/19/15 and then pow......I stalled! Nothing I do gets the scale to move! Increase protein, increase water, decrease protein, increase water, eat more, eat less, talked to nut, she said increase protein, so I'm back at that again. I'm here in rant and rave cause its where this belongs! And to top it off, the more protein I eat, the louder, the longer and the stinker my farts are! I'm done complaining, but I'm still not happy! I'd eat a Christmas cookie or 12 in my old days to feel better but I know if I did that now I'd probably crap my pants in public! Ok, now I'm done! Thanks for listening to me computer screen.

nice rant! you had surgery one week after me - I'm in my 3rd stall lol - just keep with the plan and the stall will eventually end. losing 40 lbs in 2 months is pretty awesome if you stop and think about it....give your body time to catch up with itself

Rant away!

Then, Embrace the Stall!

@@retzlpa - great RANT, glad the computer gets to enjoy the Protein perfumes

hang in there....stay on track and OFF the scale :/

It is very common to hit stalls. So just stay with the program requirements and let the magic happen.

Your doing amazing and no need to worry. Your body is still in complete shock after having surgery, and it doesn't know what to do with itself. It is very common to get into stalls. Just keep focused on making sure you have enough Protein and add maybe walking or low impact exercise. Your body will eventually let go of the fat.

Good luck

Maybe mix up your exercise routine, I stalled and changed around everything and then lost 5 pounds after a three week stall. Sometimes no matter what you do it will just take sometime for your mind and body to register all the changes.
