Good Morning Mari,

) and a tiny bit of cheating here and there over the weekend, I am happy to have a no loss/gain this past week.
Highest weight (1997): 297.0

People are so worried about what they eat between Christmas and the New Year, but they really should be worried about what they eat between the New Year and Christmas. ~Author Unknown
Hugs, Mari

What about inches? Are your clothes getting looser on you? Sometimes I lost inches w/o losing any pounds - sounds crazy but I found out it is pretty common. I measured myself every Sunday and also found it didn't come off evenly, either. Some weeks it was my hips, some weeks my waist, sometimes my bust - but over the long haul it evened out.
If you really aren't losing inches or pounds, then post what you have eaten for 2-3 days and ask for suggestions from the board.
This is what I ate yesterday:
B: protein shake
water
S: one egg, scrambled with cheese
water
L: chicken salad with ff ranch
water
D: snap peas and roast (about an ounce of each)
water
S: handfull of baked lays chips
water
bed
Today:
b: protein shake
water
s: 1 egg scrambled with cheese
water
L: chicken salad w/ ff mayo
water
s: sliced peaches
water
D: carb free shepherds pie (meat, veggies, cheese, layered)

(easy to say, I know). My best advice to you is just hang in there, stop reading all the posts about folks who "stop losing" between 3-5 months and focus on YOU, not everyone else on the boards! You are not them and vice versa! If it progresses for longer than a couple of months, call your surgeon and talk to him/her (can't remember who did your surgery, sorry). OH yea, and breathe! Again, I know, easier said than done. I have hit several stalls, some that just come with the territory and some that I have caused myself. The ones that go with the territory are the toughest to handle because you know that you are doing all the right things. You might even want to make a separate post and get others opinions, I am only one person and there are others who have been through similar cir****tances. It may help your "insanity" when you hear others talk about it and realize that this is something that happens fairly often. Good Luck and keep in touch with us! That's what we are here for - support!
Hugs, Mari
