Lactose intolerance cause a stall????

Hey all!!!

I had my VSG back in March 2012 things were going really well until shortly before Christmas I started getting bad stomach cramps and my weight loss came to a halt!! Here I am almost a month later and cramps happen pretty much all day everyday and my weight is still the same as it was last month!! I have been doing research and my symptoms match the lactose intolerance exactly!! I see my family doctor in a few weeks and go back to the clinic in March to see the nurse and dietitian!! In the meantime I am going to experiment with taking away milk products and bringing back one at a time see how it goes!! My question is if I am now lactose intolerant could it be causing my stall and if so how can I get my weight loss moving again?? Thank you in advance!!

It's good that you are going to see a Dr.

I might try to see one sooner because you've been dealing with pain for a long time.

Good luck.

Or you could try some lactaid chews to see if they help. They give you the enzyme that helps digest lactose. I can't eat dairy without them.
