Grrrrrrrr.......

i posted yesterday about similar situation. My surgery was 11/21 and I am about 3 weeks into a stall. I went back to what helped when on Atkins which was to shock my system. For 3 days I ate carbs...what I wanted and it was not nutritious. I am talking nachos, a piece of chocolate, a bit of a quiznos sandwich. I did this for 3 days and was guilt free because this was controlled. It wasn't just me giving into urges it was with intention. I have done it for 1 day before without much luck, so I went for 3 days. Yesterday it was back on program. It wasn't even that hard to get back on cause I had my Fu. A d it was over. I have dropped a lb fro my lowest so far.

If you are wanting to try it I say go for it. You really aren't going to hurt anything. You are still eating a tiny amount and it just may work!

Thanks Carrierae.. I might just hae to give that a try...
Something has to work. There have been weeks in the past that I have eaten more for whatever reason and I always lost, but thought it was a fluke.

I was sleeved on 11/14 and am in the same situation. I was stalled for weeks and just got to 45 pounds lost Friday. My suggestion is to keep on going stall is a stall. I did panic and up the water and protein, and I had read here that fish oil supplants help stalls too. But I have a feeling that if you're on plan and doing all things right, that our body just has stalls! Good luck. We're doing great! Look how far you've come!

Thanks Solace!! That's what I have done in the past.. Just venting I guess. Last time I vented the scale went down the next day.. Maybe I scared it..Hahahahaha....

At 4 months I stalled for almost 1 month, it was crazy! I thought I was never gonna start losing again. I don't think there is much for breaking a stall except for patience. Give it time and keep up the protein and carbs down......it will happen as frustrating as it may be. =)
