Thanks so much for your encouragement. I have been measuring and I log everything that goes in my mouth. I also havent lost any real inches (minimal). How did you get out of your stall??
Thanks for the help!

I really didnt do anything different, I think I just had to let my body catch up. Ive learned that this happens from the many many times Ive lost alot of weight before, I will lose about 15-20 pounds then for weeks nothing, and then it will start back up again. You just have to learn your body, you are doing everything right so dont be discouraged and also put the scale away. I only way myself on the mornings of challenge weigh in if I do more I will probably go crazy

This is NOT trying to fob you off - but go back over old posts! This is just so normal! Weight loss is rarely steady; don't look at the weeks, look at the months. 26lbs in7 weeks is almost 4lbs a week and that is much higher than bandsters expect to lose.
Low calorie diets do not always have the effect we might expect. Eating low cal for a long period of time makes our metabolism become super-efficient. So we start to actually need less food. So although we will lose, it is often not as fast as we think it will be and any extra mouthfuls we take in are very efficiently stored by our bodies. And if you are eating under 1000, make sure you are taking supplements, general (not all, there is no single approach here!) advice is that we need about 1000-1200 a day to get a balanced diet.
Some people do lose all their weight on VLCD but with the amount of exercise you are doing (high!), you might find that you loe faster by eating more!

Highest 290, Banded - 248 Lowest 139 (too thin!). Comfort zone 155-165.
Happily banded since May 2006. Regain of 28lbs 2013-14. ALL GONE!
But some has returned! Up to 175, argh! Off we go again,
I remember feeling frustrated in the beginning as well ~ just remember that it will all average out to 1-2 lbs / week in time. And really that should be our goal.
Another thought ~ how's your water intake?
