I think I hit a stall [emoji25] help please!

Hey all,

I think I hit a stall and would really like some advice please.

I am 14 weeks out from my roux en y.

I am now weighing in at 177lbs, and my BMI is 24, I'm 185cm tall and a 41 year old male.

For over a week now my weight has not really moved, a few days back I actually went up a couple of lbs I was horrified, but then today I'm back to 177.

I would like to get another 7-14 lbs off if possible.

I'm getting around 80g of Protein in each day, around 45-55g of carbs, and about 700-850 calories. I'm getting about 60oz of Water in a day.

My post surgery food experience has not been smooth. At 14 weeks I'm still not managing a lot of the foods my team have suggested.

I can manage 1 ryvita, a couple of slices of chicken, a small yoghurt, and roughly about 3-4 table spoons of cottage pie, lasagne, or beef and vegetable stew, mashed potato, scrambled egg, a small boiled egg, 3 spoons of cottage cheese.

I'm really struggling to get much more than that in, I am mostly using Protein powder (1g carbs,23g protein), or Protein Bars (low sugar).

I'm managing to get my Vitamins most of the time, but they fill me up to the point of almost being sick.

I have vomited a lot but checked this out with the hospital, and they just said take a step back with food.

Sorry for the long post but wanted to give as much info as possible.

I really would like to get this last bit of weight off. I know my BMI is in the healthy range but I feel that getting this last bit off will really help to keep my diabetes under control.

Many thanks

Ian
