I am 5 1/2 weeks post op and down 30 lbs . The scale hasn't moved in a week and a half I am getting so frustrated . ;(. How much Protein am I supposed to be having . My nut told me 55 grams and to also eat steamed veggies with my protein . I was cleared for full solids but I don't eat any breads etc and follow low carbs and low sugar usually less than 5% per serving . How do I break the stall ??

My doc told me if after 3 weeks the scale doesn't move, then be concerned. Otherwise, just keep following the diet you were given as many of our diets varied. At 5 weeks out I was on very small portions. dinner would be a bite of chicken and if I had room some steamed veggies. I would stall CONSTANTLY but usually by the third week the stall would break. I have lost 75 pounds since I was sleeved on 4/27/16 (don't go by my pic as it is from May). Stick with it. I am sure your stall will break soon

Let your body do what it needs to do. Al, you need to do is to do your part with meeting protein and liquid goals.
