I had my surgery 11/7/05. This past month my weight loss has slowed down to almost nothing, but I am still losing inches. I think that this is normal at 4 months post op, based on other postings I have read.

I have the exact same surgery date, and I'm having the same problem!

I had an 8 week stall. Just finally coming out of it. Surgery was 11/7/05, did great thru Christmas, then nothing until the first week of March when I was down 12 lbs. The only thing I did was increase my water ****il I feel like I'm floating away....) and increase the exercise. I hope that doesn't happen again real soon, it is depressing. Total loss now is 70 lbs. since surgery, 84 total. We couldn't have done that without the surgery, and hopefully it will continue on the downward spiral!

Samantha; I had a three week stall around -55 lbs. I think after losing that much weight so fast, our bodies just need to adjust for a few weeks. Increase your water, that will help. Also, your protein is good, are you maybe eating too many carbs? You didn't say what your carb count is averaging. Blessings, Jennifer 253 / 187 / ???

OK, ok, I'm trying to keep my patience and optimism up, but....you know the story. I've been stalled at between 50 and 55 pounds for 'forever'. 34 first month, about 12 second month, then 8 or so, and now in nothing in like a month! Relevant facts: 1) 'Could' be drinking more fluids, I know, but pretty sure I'm getting at least the minimum 2) per fitday.com, averaging around 90 - 95 grams protein per day 3) taking all vitamins, but iron tested low - about to start prescription 4) exercising 40 - 90 mins 5 days/week, including 60-90 mins with strength training at gym 3 days/week. (I know there is that old thing about muscle vs. fat, but....c'mon!) 5) seem to have lost maybe 3/4" in hips, but that's about it Someone besides my barix please remind me that this can be normal????!!! (Or give tips - I've got the plateau-buster info, but don't want to go that route this 'soon' - I don't think.)
