Plateau

I have been at a plateau for almost a month. I am 10 weeks post 179-182. have noticed that I will drop weight but then when I work overnight i gain 3 pounds back when i have my days off i lose those pounds etc... has this happened to anyone? anyone have any recommendations?

I do eat a lot of crackers due to constant nausea. Do realize I only typically eat one meal a day also.

I think you may have self-diagnosed what the issue is. You need to change that up some. They make various drugs to help with nausea which would probably be a much better solution than eating carbs. Talk to your surgeon.

It may be that you aren't getting enough calories eating one meal a day.

Also, you probably hit on something with the crackers... they have a lot of carbs and you need to keep your carbs low. Also, are you getting in enough protein? Try to get it up to 100 grams a day. And you need to be drinking over 64 ounces of liquids a day as well. Doing all of those things should get the scale moving.

As far as the nausea goes, why don't you let your doctor know. I have dealt with constant nausea and I take Zofran (generic) for it and it does the trick. Then you won't have to eat the high-carb crackers.
