I'm wondering if anyone stalled for 2 months ?

I've been stalled since 10/2/17 so 6 weeks currently, bouncing between 190 and 185. I'm almost 11 months out currently and have been trying to switch my diet around like I usually do to break a stall but nothing is working currently so I'm just staying the course and hoping to break it soon. I have gone down another size during this time and the 12s I just bought are getting big as well so maybe even down to a 10 soon.

I think you might want to try and up your calories a little bit. I've found that my stalls early out were broken by increasing my calories.

HW: 301

SW: 271

CW: 190 (as of today)

By increasing calories you mean increase Protein or sugar ?

How frustrating! Maybe aim for 1000-1200 cals a day. It sounds counterproductive but I agree with that others that a stall can be broken by eating more. If you're already eating your 80 g of Protein, which is plenty, add calories with fruits, veggies and healthy carbs. All carbs are not created equal, and they aren't all bad. Healthy fats are good too.

Some easy ideas:

Make some roasted veggies in the oven with a little EVOO, salt and pepper. Cut up onions, potatoes, add cauliflower, brussel sprouts, carrots, etc. make sure you're still only eating 1/2-1 cup at a time.

Add avocado to anything for a calorie and healthy fat boost. I've always liked to wrap deli turkey and cheese in an avocado slice and eat it like a wrap.

Have a chai or coffee latte with skim or reduced fat milk. Add a sugar free "pump" for flavor if needed.

Have some fruit. Add a little Greek yogurt or chocolate hummus as a dip.

Adding 200 cals a day might make the difference you're looking for. Good luck!

I think you should go all out and binge high calorie foods and see if it does anything. Apparently the plan you surgeon gave you isn't working right now. When I say binge I don't mean make it a daily thing...just try 1 or 2 days of eating 2000-2500 calories. Which is maintainance for some non wls folk.

Well the weight loss depends on where you're starting. The smaller you are the slower you will lose.

Stalls happen to everyone and yes they do pass. I would suggest taking your measurements.

And also start a food/ exercise diary. See what you're eating and try switching up your workouts. It could be something as simple as increasing your Protein and Water intake too. It's trial and error.

I do consume soooo less ! I don’t eat most times I think that’s where problem lies ! Thanks for all the advice I’ll try to increase my intake n focus on some healthy fats as suggested! Work out definitely needs to be a part of this

Take away 1 shake and add more veggies. Drink Water water water and do HITT cardio 3 out of the 5 days. If you don't have a gym membership then walk for 3 min and run as fast as you can for 10 seconds. Do this in intervals for 30 min. Do this for 1 week and I bet the scale moves [emoji6]
