Hello. I had by RNY on Aug 26, 2015, and I weighed 31 preop. I currently weigh between 195 and 198 and have been stuck here for about 6 weeks. I lost fairly slowly, but now I am scared that it is over. I never really had a plateau until now. I eat mainly low carb and high Protein. Lately I have been eating Peanut Butter, which may be my problem. I have also just started walking on a treadmill daily, I did not really exercise much before. Will I continue to lose for a couple more months, or is this kind of it for me/ Thank you so much!

I am 3 years post-op. This is my impression of the "Maintenance" phase. http://www.breadandbutterscience.com/Surgery2.pdf

Im a lil over one year out and didnt lose no weight in 2 months and then today i got on the scale first time in a week and I lost 4 pounds

Thank you. I Guess I need to just keep at it and really count my calories a bit more.

I started drinking more water and I think thats what helped

i would find alternatives to Peanut Butter because there is so much fat, if you must, almond butter is better... but greek yogurt is a good alternative, chicken breast has a high Protein count....mozzarella cheese sticks-light for a snack. pinterest has alot of good ideas..check it out.

Thank you for the ideas. I will give up the peanut butter. It is funny, because my NUT told me to have it with apples as a snack and I could have it every day. Now that I think about it, I pretty much stalled about a week after I started that.

I've been told if I'm stalling I need to push on my exercise and also keep A food diary to make sure I'm not sneaking in food that I shouldn't and keeping the proper amount of calories per day

Just keep eating right and exercising and you will still lose weight. I'm 16 months out and still losing. I'm only 1 lb from reaching my goal. I've had some major stalls. One was almost 2 months long, but eventually it will start moving again. Don't give up!

Thank you all so much. My stall may be breaking as I am down a pound finally! Yay!

How are you doing at getting in all of your Protein and fluids?

I am actually struggling to get all my protein in. I get my fluids though.

Try upping your protein. Eat protein first and avoid added sugars (especially high fructose corn syrup). Starches, and fried foods. You may want to increase your fluids, too.
