Topic: RE: Coming back home!
Tarra, The plateau diet you listed is more than I normally eat! I need to give my weight loss a kick. I don't think this one is for me. I am going to try the clear liquid diet that Kathleen posted starting next monday to see if I can kick my loss back up a little. Julia
Topic: RE: 10 Months out and 130 pounds gone.
Isn't that an awesome feeling to know your now in the same "size" frame as others.
You have done awesome Bill!
Here's to the next two months!
But if I want to see the scale move anywhere but up
I have to start doing this to myself if I want to get any smaller!

Rebecca, basically it is what we have right after the surgery, broth, sf popsickle, sf jello. The on the 4th day you add ONE protein shake each day for the next 3 days. That will just start you, or should, it did me. It is just going back to basics, and it takes alot of will power, to do this since we can eat regular food. I know it was hard on me to do it, was always wanting some real food. But I stuck it out and did great, was so happy for the weight loss that the sacrfice was worth it.

Tarra, welcome back. You are going in the right direction by seeking support. That plateau plan you posted seems to have alot of food included in it. That is just my opinion though. Are you getting in your protien? Your water? Your exercise? Remember the basics. Try keeping a food journal. There are web sites to help you track your food intake, calories and nutrition and exercise. I use this web site to help me with those things and to help motivate me.

At this stage many of us start to struggle with our weight loss, the honeymoon period is over. We need to watch what we eat and step up our exercise program to continue to get to our goals.
Hang in there,
You can get back on track.

You should talk with your doctor, might be gallbladder problems or maybe something else.
Take care

Welcome back Tarra, I dont believe we have officaially met. I am Kathleen Gregory and I had wls on April 24, but then that is on my profile. I have lost 133 lbs and I hope by the end of March to be in onderland. Yea.
I was gaining a couple of pounds and then I was at a plateau for 2 1/2 months. My nutritionionst told me to do clear liquids for 3 days, nothing but, and then for the next 3 days do the clear liquid plus one protein shake a day. That jumpstarted my system back into the weight loss. I lost 10 pounds within a month. So if nothing else try that.
Good luck and keep us posted.
Your wls sister, from MO
