I'd really work at avoiding drinking while eating. If you got a fast tract then adding fluids into the mix is probably going to speed things up all the more. I get that same feeling of times of not feeling like I ate anything. Denser Proteins like tuna or chicken definitely sit heavier in my stomach. Things like yogurt and cottage cheese pass through the system quicker than other foods.

Are you tracking your food? If not it's a good idea to start to know for sure where you are at with calories and carbs. Lot of things can contribute to a stall. Not getting enough Water, Protein, or calories can be a big factor in that. May seem counterproductive but keeping your calories too low and inhibit weight loss.

I'll keep that in mind. I am drinking a lot of Water. But I really don't think I'm eating enough Protein. That's my problem maybe. As far as tracking, I'm using my fitness pal.

Not hitting your Protein can cause things to slow down. I'm good at getting 60-70 a day but wondering if part of my stall is if I need it higher. I'm adding a Protein Shake back into my daily diet to see if that extra bump helps out any.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
