So close to Onederland!
Congrats...You are one of the faster ladies it seems in loosing weight!! I am 6.5 weeks out and have only lost 6lbs in the past 3 weeks. I am doing no more than 600 calories a day. I have 2 protein shakes and fill the rest with cottage cheese, scrambled egg, canned chicken or greek yogurt, I do measure. I can't seem to get the scale to move faster. Can you give us an idea of what you eat in a day, maybe a couple of example days. A little over 3 weeks ago I added veggies, broccoli and green beans and that is when the weight stopped, so I stopped adding veggies after 3 days and have been only eating protein, still not losing much. I know there is a stall but 3.5 weeks of only losing 6 lbs is crazy to me. I did lose 10lbs pre-op diet and 20 the first 3 weeks and 6 the last 3.5 weeks. I have been walking and am getting my heart rate up for sure. I wonder if I should stop the protein drinks?? Thanks and again - congrats - you are so close!
Thank you , Sabrina.
First, it sounds like you are in the thrall of the dreaded post 3-week stall. Mine lasted almost 5.5 weeks, and lost a grand total of 8 pounds during that time. Then the weight started dropping again. I think the majority of people experience the stall after 3 weeks--for some, it's short. For others, like you and me, it lasts much longer. Just hang in there and follow your plan.
As far as what I was eating when I was at 6.5 weeks? Everyone's plan is different, so I don't know what yours is supposed to be. Mine was beginning solid proteins. I did not drink protein shakes very often after 6 weeks. I went back and found one of my menu posts from the daily "Whatcha eating today VSGers?" post. This is from December 8, 2016:
"I'm at 6 weeks post surgery, just got to add soft veggies on Monday (YAY!).
B: Eggs, ham, cheese
L: Tuna and cottage cheese
D: Ground turkey and carrots
Liquid and vites: On track
Exercise: Walking and recumbent bike (bad knees)"
I hope this helps give you an idea
