Lost weight after plateau more than six months out?



Recommended Posts

Yep. Have to work really ******* hard/smart to do it. But very very very possible!

First try cleaning up your diet to perfection, Protein then vegetable very minimal carbs, hit Fiber goals (regular bowel movement), drinking only cal free things but mostly plain Water, then Look into intermittent fasting.

Good luck 💜

I had a 3 week stall. It was because I was not getting enough sleep. Now back on track and lost another 3 lbs in a week

Has anyone lost more weight after a long plateau more than six months postop?

You can go back into weight loss mode. Have you checked in with your surgeon’s office? You may want to rule out medical issues as a cause.

How many calories and carbs you are eating per day?

You may be eating your maintaining calories if you are not gaining or losing weight. (check with your dietician or your plan)

Something to try --- Dialing in your diet: (I am not a dietician. feel free to ignore the rest of this post)

Log your food. (baritastic or myfitnesspal app) Look at your calories and carbs – Are you in your weight loss calories and macros? Are they too low or too high?

If your calories and carbs are too high. Adjust calories lower by 100 carbs to 53 for a month. After that month if it does not move you will adjust them lower again to find the calorie range that puts your body in weigh loss mode.

If your calories are too low, you will add 100 for a month.

      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! 😞
