So I mentioned last week that I was not losing weight. Well nothings changed. In fact I've gained 2 pounds! I'm getting very discouraged. I'm eating perfectly. Literally just protein, veggies, and fruit. Getting in all my water and vitamins. Walking a mile a day, and still nothing! I'm so confused and I'm starting to feel like this surgery was for nothing.

How much Water? How much Protein? How many carbs? How far out are you?

70oz water. At least 60 grams of protein. 2 months post op

I dont count carbs. But the only thing they would be in is my fruit and yogurt. Like I went over my diet with a dietitian and she said it was perfect

Probably just a normal stall.

Just a stall it happens, sometimes you just need to wait them out. I've had many as you can see. Did nothing to try and move them other that wait.

Sounds like a normal gain/stall to me and it likely won't be your last. And if your nut says it's OK then it must be so you can probably just keep doing what you're doing. Personally I counted everything and would up my Water and Protein and watch the carbs, but I'm not the one getting paid to give you advice.

Are you noting down everything you are eating/drinking?

Are you constipated, exercising, due on your monthly?

Are you in a stall?

My doctor says no fruit! No fruit until you hit goal. Protein protein protein. 60 grams of protein and tons of water.

Sorry for the Tmi, but Are ur BMs normal?? I had a stall this last week and Miralax helped tremendously and the scale has lowered !!

I've also heard that if you don't eat enough, you won't lose any weight.

I would up your protein to between 90-100 grams and for fruit just eat berries they are the lowest in sugars and carbs. My doctor also says to stay away from fruits until goal. What kind of yogurt are you eating? Some are pretty high in sugar. I eat Greek okios zero or dannon light and fit Greek yogurts. It is very normal to stall and gain a couple of pounds at around 2 months out. It happened to me and was feeling the same way as you. I sometimes do a liquid day or two when I see things slowing down that seems to help. I hope this helps you

Same thing with me and I'm almost 2 months out! Just be patient, I think it's our bodies way of readjusting and healing. I'm confident the weight will start coming off again as my extensive research points in this exact path! We're doing everything right and our bodies are going to get with the program really soon!
