Disappointed in myself

Hi all, I am very disappointed right now. I weighed myself Saturday and have not lost anything in about a month. When will this stall end? I can't help but thingk, what am I doing or what have I done wrong. I also need words of encouragement on things to eat while at work. I have been able to tolerate everything that touches my tongue and it has me worried. I've been getting my protein in through my chicken and added protein mixed with my coffee. Can someone please tell me something? I NEED HELP BAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Do you have a support group you attend? You could ask them. Or call your Doctor's office and ask what you should do. I think you might start by writing down everything you eat.You can do it online at fitday.com. Maybe you are eating too much or too often. Don't forget to count any BLT's you might be having (bites, licks and tastes). They add up. Good luck! Diana

I had my surgery around the same time as you. I had a follow up visit last week and my loss was almost non-existant but the doctor was not worried. I do know I had lost some inches though. I havent changed a thing and FINALLY this week I have seen a 3# loss. Just hang in there it will happen. as far as taking stuff to eat at work...I made some turkey meatballs and had one of those with sauce and cheese. do alot of canned chili, cottage cheese or just meat and cheese. No one at my work knows I had WLS, they thought I just had the other procedures done so once in while when the order takeout it is a bit difficult but they all know I am watching what I eat so it works out. I am able to eat salad now so that gives me a few more options.

Octavia, Everyone on this board has been through what you are going through. Please just hang in there. It is a stall and it will pass. You just have to stay positive and know you have done the right thing. I am the same way. I havent ever gotten sick over anything, and sometimes when I read what people have had to eat I feel like I eat more than everyone else too. But you know after my 2 month visist with my DR. I am doing much better than I thought. Im down to 163, I started at 219, And Im in a size 14! So you know, just do what you are suppose to do and dont worry about this stall. It will pass and you will start losing the weight pretty rapidly. Just do what you have been told to do by your Dr and Nut. You will be fine! Good luck, keep your head up! Michelle

Octavia, All I can say is hang in there the scale will move eventually. Know youre not alone with your concerns about foods not making you sick it scares me too to think that I can eat about anything and not get sick so far, I was looking forward as dumb as it sounds to not being able to eat most stuff. Dont loose faith your stall will break Im sure though mine have and Ive stalled 2 times in the last 2 months for almost 2 weeks each time. Keep your head up and stick with it. Amanda
