Topic: RE: I hit a stall, my first
Hey brother I hear you!  I'm in one now, just a lil over 6 months out! Try to keep in mind...that is a marathon, not a sprint. We are making changes for the rest of our life not just trying to see how much weight we can lose quickly. I am going to see my NUT this AM and Im going to specifically ask how many cal is a good idea to adjust my diet by. Sometimes we have to eat more to lose...then adjust it back down again. Who the heck thought we would need to eat MORE to LOSE...

 I loved the stuff in crystal light as well- it gave it a creamy kind of taste- like made the orange one a creamsicle.  It eas great with lemonade as well

Hi Rhody!   Johanna is absolutely right!  Your body needs to have these plateaus for it to adjust to your awesome weightloss!  It has to catch up.  Don't forget your body is going thru so many changes inside that you don't notice.  So think of these stalls as positive things.  They won't last and when they end they end good for awhile.  Then you will stall again.  I have had this happen 3 times so far.  I understand the frustration, but I try to remember my body needs this and i am doing this for life.  Its not just for now.  I have a life time to get where I want to be.  At least now, my lifetime has increased many more years than it was before surgery.  You are doing great!  Congrats on your success!   Take care!  Eldy

Remeber, stalls are not your fault, they are the body's natural way of adjusting, so do not be discouraged when your changes do not affect the stall!!

You are doing great!!

I get my nectar protein from a place in North Providence on Mineral Spring Ave called Extreme Fitness.  Its cheaper than getting them online, and having to pay shipping.

Jules,

Right there with ya!  A lot of changes going on here and I'm finding myself hibernating and closing down.

Let's work on getting out of this slump, together!

Jules,

Jay and I will be there.  We may not stay long; my oldest daughter is driving with my youngest son back to Indiana.  I will be an empty-nester, too!  (And I'm not handling it very well!!)

Thanks for the invite!
