Topic: RE: HELP I"M STUCK
Wow I am amazed to hear that I am not the only one going through this. I had my surgery on 3/8/05 and I've lost 117lbs as of now, but for the last month I've lost NOTHING. I don't know if I am losing inches but its driving me nuts to not be losing anymore. My doctor said that it is normal to have months where you lose nothing, that you'll be losing inches then. The liquid and soft food things sounds like a really good idea! I might try that actually. I could handle to lose some weight again its frustrating to be stuck and a week of liquids would not kill me.

Hi Jessica, I just responded to Lori's post which is about the same problem you are having. I too was stuck for 5 weeks and it didn't matter what I did I couldn't break it. Then I lost 10 lbs in 4 days and have just had little piddly losses since then. But a loss is a loss!!! Am down 86lbs in 6 months and I think you are doing wonderful. It sounds like most of us are in the same place. I started at 286 just got to onderland at 199lbs on the 3rd of Oct. Hang in there...it will come off! Smiles, Roxi

Hi Lori, I had the same problem about 2 months ago. I hit the 4 month mark and was down 65 lbs and sat there for 5 weeks. Didn't matter what I did it didn't help. All of a sudden I dropped 10 lbs in 4 days. Baically I am in the same place again. The losses are much slower but I am not at a complete stand still again. Have lost 86lbs in 6 months. Hang in there everyone! Our ride isn't over. Check your measurements because I found that I dropped a bunch of inches when my weight was standing still. Smiles, Roxi

Wow, nice to see you Tim and congrats! I don't see many men on the boards so it is so nice to see you post. Sometimes it's nice to hear how the men are doing and also nice to get a mans perspective on things. Keep in touch and again congratulations on the new healthier you! Jean

Lori, This is just a suggestion. Try going back to liquids for 3 days (make sure you drink your protein drinks during these 3 days) Then progress to soft foods for another 3 days. I did this once and it jump started my weight loss. But everyone is different so I hope that it helps, but can't guarantee it. By the way... your doing great. Your Journey hasn't ended yet. Take Care. Amy

Good morning everybody!! Long time lurker- first time poster here on this board! Since surgery I have lost most of my comorbdities....CPAP is the next to go. I think that is probably about gone, but just not documented yet. It's hard to believe how much better my life is now... I have gone from a 6X shirt to an XL. My feet have actually gotten smaller!! Gone from a 12 down to a 10 1/2... go figure!!! take care everyone!!! Tim 410/250/??? I know, I know... I need to update my pic!!!
