Oldfashioned diet and stalling for 10 days already...



Recommended Posts

Just venting...

I have been doing well and had a steady weight loss at my max 1500 cal diet with 100g Proteins. Then the dreaded stall came 10 days ago... I'm so sick of waiting for it to be over. I reduced my cal intake to 1300 cal yesterday and still nothing. I know it needs to happen, but still, it has been going on long enough.

I HATE IT!!!

Good luck on your upcoming surgery. It is a very different experience than dieting.

I'm almost 14 months post op and I just finally broke a month-long stall. Be prepared for them to happen after surgery! Still, despite this stall and the stalls I've had pretty much every month since surgery, I'm down 194 pounds since surgery. It adds up, and in the end, the stalls will just be a distant memory but your health and weight loss will be a reality. Good luck to you.

Thanks for your comments! I know I'm just beeing impatient. Just over 6 weeks to my surgery and I was getting a few appointments via mail today that my anesthesiologist wanted me to do as a precaution. I will be very busy in the upcoming weeks anyway, so the distraction will be welcome.

It's getting cold here in Finland and the darkness does nothing for me. It's close to freezing during the night, so I had to get out all my winter clothes.

I will be sad to see my beautiful and warm down jacket getting to big for me, but I will rather take the weight loss.

In case you don't know, Finland is the home country of Santa Claus (the North pole is a bad rumor), so be good people, I have connections! ????

Good luck with the process and the journey.

Yes, stalls happen ..... my last one was close to 4 weeks too, annoying but it finally shifted.

Now, I am devastated re Santa Claus! I thought he lived in South Pole :D , as everything is upside down where I live ;)

Stallers,

I've been stalled for a year! Had surgery April 2015 and essentially stopped losing Nov. 2015. Stuck at 200 lbs. Trying for 165 lbs. I like the liquid diet idea. I may give it a try for three days or so.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
