Hello,
I had duodenal switch in 2007. I am wondering if I am able to join you discussion?

Boy, this weather and the dark mornings make me want to stay in bed! Tonight I have a training session at the gym which I'm really enjoying. I won't be missing any trick or treaters since I live on a back road and haven't had any kids stop by for years. I bought a few treats just in but will make sure my kids eat them if no one shows up.... tooooo tempting!
B - protein shake
S - greek yogurt
L - homemade beef stew
S - turkey pepperettes
D - eggs, turkey sausage
S- roasted red pepper hummus, few triscuits
Everybody is different. I would say this early on, it could be approx. 3 weeks. If it goes on more than that I would probably call the Clinic and tell them what's going on. You may need to "up" your calories or drop some carbs. Stalls can happen when our body thinks it's starving. If you eat more, it kick starts things again.
You are so early out though that I think its just a body adjustment, some shock. You have lost well to start with.
Hang in for a bit and see what happens. Again, if nothing moving in a month, call the clinic and see what they have to say.

A stall early on is very typical. I don't think you're doing anything wrong. Hang in there, your body is just adjusting. The losses will keep on coming.

So i just had my surgery on sept 16th which was a sleeve recovery has went well and have been able to keep food down no problem and lost over 45lbs since the surgery but no ive gotten down to 350 and have hit a plateau even though ive been active at the gym but no loss just wondering if theres anything im doing wrong or if there is something i need to change in my diet that may help?
I highly suggest losing 5-10 more lbs to give yourself a buffer for bounceback.
