Phase 4 weight loss stopped/



Recommended Posts

Just over 3 weeks out and the weight loss has stopped after 20 pounds. I eat like a chicken. I can eat 6-8 oz. of soft food. 10-15 oz of liquid. Keeping up with Protein intake and H2o. Barely. But why has the weight loss stopped? It's been 4-5 days maybe more and still maintaining the same. actually gained a couple. ??? WTH? is this it?

Calm down...it's the '3 week stall' - just put that in the search box. I have been stalled for a month with no scale movement - losing inches and clothing sizes - but not #s. I admit to being pissed about it, but figure it is part of the process. You digestion is adjusting, as well as your body, and you are still in the early stages of healing internally too.

6-8 ounces of Protein at one sitting? Or the whole day?

Oh yes!! That 3 week stall that no one told us about. It will pass my lasted 3 weeks[emoji21]. But the inches didn't and now the pounds are moving again. Keep doing what you're doing and try as best to get those fluids in.

6-8 OZ of soft food. in one setting. ( 10-15 minutes ) . And 10=16 Oz. Fluid in 10-15 minutes. ( shake )

Added note. Something new I've noticed. Stools are light colored now. like a light yellowish tan. ?/ My diet has been mostly egg quiche with cheese and ham and greens added. I.5 sm muffin sized quiche muffins is all I can eat when I feel it backing up or whatever it's doing . .

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
