Topic: RE: the scale doesn't move
AWW im sorry to hear you are in a stall but you know they are definitely normal.And yes definitely up your protein and liquid.You are doing great remember there is nothing else that would have allowed you to lose as much as you have. I suggest not to weigh all the time so you wont focus on it. Remember you are losing inches when you are at a stall. I may get on once a week if that i decided from the beginning i was not going to drive myself crazy.

I hear ya! I have had a few stalls along the way already and I am a month out. I can only say what has worked for me, you need to look at the big picture...you have lost 20 lbs in 3 weeks. That is amazing....almost a lb a day. Wowzas. Your body is probably just in shock.

Topic: RE: the scale doesn't move
I no how you feel. I am stuck at 17 ponds and knew I would be stalling. I am frustrated also. cuz I am hitting the gym but getting more pain than gain.
I think I am one of the exceptions to the rule, as far as food goes. I think I might be able to anything, not going to get drastic just yet but I have tried some no-no's without a problem. And I am sure this has a lot to do with my stalling. I am probably around 1100 calories daly.

I accidentally didn't read a label well and had a yogurt with 14G of sugar. (I thought it had splena) I felt awful from that, racey heart, sweaty for about an hour. Blech!
Canned chicken w/ may through the food processor is the first thing that got "stuck" or didn't sit well with me. After an hour of thinking I was going to die, I took a small sip of pop to induce puking and felt way better after it was out. not sure if it was "stuck" or what, but it felt heavy on my chest, almost to the point of feeling like I had labored breath. It sucks getting used to all the new rules. I wonder if crab meat is moister and would be ok. I might have to try it eventually.

I will tell you what I have been told over and over when I hit a stall.. up your liquids, up your protein.
I really didn't believe it but it does work.
Good luck!

Hello I am down 30ilbs since surgery on 12/12/08
Topic: RE: the scale doesn't move
I have just started the pureed. Today for lunch I had crab meat with light mayo that went thru the food processor. I added spices and put it on 3 single saltines. I used one small can of crabmeat with 2 tbs of lt mayo. Then I used 1/4 of it for my meal. I liked it and it is 3 hrs after lunch and I feel fine. Can you eat refried beans? I am allowed to have protein that is soft like that as long as it is below 5 gms of fat and 10 gms of sugar. Well, protein doesn't really have sugar but that is my rule for anything I eat.
I can't eat mashed potatoes. They sit hard in my stomach and make me feel very uncomfortable. My heart will even race after eating them. ugh. horrible feeling. It will be interesting to see what I can have.
