I know stalls are normal after wls however I have only ever stalled for around 7-10days max before, I'm currently on stall week 5!!
I do have 'little treats/cheats' I'm not 100% perfect but I'm always within my daily intake allowances/recommendations but my dr encouraged this as this for me is a lifestyle change one I can withstand long term.
I eat 850-950 calories a day around 50-60g of protein - so do you think I should up this to increase/jump start my weight loss? My nut recommends that by 18/24 month out I should be stabilised at around 1200 calories.
I cannot do structured exercise due to being a electric wheelchair user but I do try and move as much as possible to help burn calories.
Also today I ate 9 oz in one meal is this a lot?? At this point how many oz can you eat, as I feel I can eat way more than I expected? For example Last week I asked my sister to fix me breakfast and asked for 2 weetibix yet after I finished and remarked that I was surprised I'd eaten it all she said oh it was actually 3 as they had broken and I wasn't putting one back! Needless to say I will not be asking ANYONE to make me food again. Anyway I'm just surprised I couldn't tell I'd eaten 3 (mushed up) and wasn't even at my full can't eat another bite level!
