Try cutting out ALL refined sugars. This did the trick for me.

I also had a plateau for a couple of months. Are you eating enough protein? I shoot for 100 grams a day. That also helps with sweets cravings. Drinking enough water? Exercising? Eating small frequent meals? Look at your routine and see what you could change that might shake things up. If all else fails, go back on liquids for a few days to see if that helps. Good luck!

Egads! 3 months? Congrats by the way on the 125 down. I'm only 4 months post-op but am experiencing a 3 weeks plateau so far. Had to really examine why this was occuring and decided to ask a few questions to myself: Am I exercising enough? Drinking enough water? Snacking between meals, or perhaps having too many carb snacks or carbs with my meal? Am I eating enough protein? I decided to add a protein shake, watch the inbetween meal snacking, and increase the exercise. Hopefully the scale will cooperate! I suggest you go back to the basics that we all learned in the beginning. See if that helps
