Stalled out losers CLUB!!

I've decided that the scale is EVIL!! I have to get rid of it for a while!

Here is another one stalled..,sort of. I have been hovering @ 201 =/- .5 for two weeks. I've lost a toal of 73 is at this point and am very happy with it so far. The last month ahs been vvvveeeeerrry slow going. I was diagnosed with asthma and it has effected by ability to work out. I go back to the doc tomorrow to get clearance to start up again. Also, I have kicked the water up to 100oz a day...running to bathroom is my only exercise right now. LOL My biggest frustration is still looking at that 2XX number.......it has got to go!!! Kerri 284 pre-op 274/201-ish/135

I've lost only 56lbs since the surgery, which was now 22 weeks ago. That's like 2.5lbs a week. I averaged that on Weigh****chers, and then I could eat! I have such pouch issues and intolerances that I regret this surgery every single day. But, since I made the decision to do this, I feel obligated to make the most of it. So I'm going to up my protein to at least 100g a day, and up my water to at leat 100oz a day. The 100/100 plan. We'll see if that works. Up till now I'd looked at every calorie over those for my 60g of daily protein as "free" calories, in that I could eat what I wanted as long as I stayed in my calorie range adn didn't go too high on bad carbs. I think that might be a mistake. So I'm going to use as many calories as possible on protein and see if that helps. Today was my first day on this plan, and not only am I floating away on a river of pee (I've done my 100oz of water already adn it's only 7pm), but it was a royal pain in the ass getting in all that protein. Right now I'm just under 100g and will go to about 122 with a protein shake later. I'll let anyone interested know if this works. Mary Ellen

I am stalled, going bald and no one has called! I stalled out, can't up the protein shakes because I can't afford to buy them-losing hair like a chemo patient and if someone doesn't call soon to at least INTERVIEW me for a job I am going to lose my mind. My dh and I are circling each other like wary bullfighters...too much stress and we are keeping too much in. I am glad I am not alone in the stalled and bald categories! (Don't worry, I already called my therapist about the mind loss.) Take care and hope that scale moves soon! Rebecca R

I'm a member here! Been stalled for about 6 weeks. I only lost TWO pounds last month. Was hoping August would turn things around for me, but it's not. So frustrating!! Granted, losing 90 lbs in 4 months is amazing and all, and I guess my body needs a break. But, body, we need to lose another 120 more pounds! We can't stop here!! Let's move on! Trisha
