So....I have done my MGB on 16th January 2017. I was 125 KG and Lost 28 KG so far. Since last month I am stuck on 95 KG...I am not loosing any more wight. I haven't changed me diet and I am regular on my protein intake, shake and medicines.

And I have badly hair loss...almost like I am feeling I will be bald from my forehead area soon.

Anyone out there having same problem????

Worried !!!!!!!!!

you're just in a stall. They're very common. Most people experience several stalls while losing weight. Just keep following your eating plan and your weight loss will start again soon.

as for hair loss, that is very common, too. It will last a few months, and then it'll grow back.

I lost about 6kg in the week after surgery and nothing since then. It's been one month since I had surgery.

Catwoman7...Thank you for making me relax. Your profile looks so good about your weight loss journey and I will keep your words with me about stalls. I wish this first stall of mind get over soon. Thank you for replying.

Would you like to give me advise about snacks...what you are eating if you are hungry in b/w your meals? As I dont want to eat anything non appropriate snacks. Thank you in advance.

Livinglife...6KG in 1 month is good...but surly its worried why you are not loosing? as first 6 months called " Honeymoon period" and you are loosing super fast. I am sure you are on your protein and bariatic diet. And 1.5 ltr water a day MUST. No constipation and Walking 20 min atleast. Good luck !!!

my snacks are usually something like a protein shake or a Dannon Light & Fit Greek yogurt. Occasionally I'll have some baby carrots with about 1/4 C hummus (raw vegetables can be hard on my stomach, even two years out, but because they can be irritating, it stops me from eating too much. Hey - whatever works!). At night I'll sometimes have a couple of sugar free popsicles. Like raw vegetables, the sugar alcohols in sugar free popsicles bother my stomach, so all I can handle is two of them. I also eat Light & Fit yogurt occasionally at night, too, especially if I'm craving ice cream. The creaminess/sweetness/dairy aspect of the yogurt hit the same spot as ice cream would. I also drink *a lot* of fluid (usually Crystal Light) - which helps sometimes, but I know sometimes you just have to have real food...

Catwoman7..this is such a valuable tips. I Thank you for this. Basically I am not at all sugar like person. I don't like sweet stuff...( I know its unusual most of the time I craving for a bit spicy and tangy food. that's it. but I can understand that heaving a yogurt in snacks is like you are increasing your protein intake. For me I can eat hard veggie easily. So I guess hummus and veggie is a great idea. Thank you

I lost about 6kg in the week after surgery and nothing since then. It's been one month since I had surgery.

Do not worry. I lost about 12 or 13 lbs in the 1st 9 days after surgery, then stayed the same (up and down a pound or two) for almost 3 weeks. I get required protein in every day, not always enough water though. Today, I am about 10 weeks out from surgery (sleeved on 3/31) and got on the scale this morning and was 199.8 [emoji4]

I am definitely a slower loser than most, but on surgery day was 227 so averaging about 2-3 lbs. a week. Depending on where you started and your exercise and meal plan is why so many people vary. Some surgeons give patients a couple weeks of liquids, I went home from the hospital on soft foods. Follow your plan and you will lose.

Check your iron levels. My hair got very thin! My Doc had my ferritin checked and it was a 4! Supposed to be 70! After 2 iron infusions my ferritin is 81 and my hair stopped falling out. Now waiting for it to come back!!!

Did you consult your doc? Any advise from them? And I guess you must have had a enough lost during your band period !!!! I guess MGB is slow but effective. And I truly believe now that my body is on stall. Means need to change a diet and my routine. Good luck to you.

Yes went yesterday. He said not to worry that loss if much slower after a revision, to just give it time. And that I also have my height, weight and age and slow metabolism to take in consideration. He said to be patient and just keep doing what I'm doing.
