7 month plateau
has anyone else lost some weight right out of surgery and the no more? My doctors nutritionist wasn't helpful and i will be one year post-op in November and i have only lost 30 pounds. All of it with in 6 months and now nothing. I went for regular fills and my doctor says nothing. Is it me? Now i just don't go to see him its futile. I don't have insurance and i'm still paying off the surgery. Everytime i go its like another 250 to walk in the door. I need some suggestions. I'm open to everything at this point cuz i'm ready to give up. Thank you.
Hi Kasia:
I was wondering, has your nutritionist given you a weekly sample meal plan for you to follow? If so, are you following it? Are you drinking your water and exercising? Are you snacking often? And what type of surgery did you have? RYN, Lap band? I've been out since May and I followed the meal plans to a tee and now I exercise 5 days a week...and I'm not crazy about it, but I just know that for me, I need to exercise in order to lose the weight.
I'm really sorry that you haven't seen much in terms of pounds, but have you lost inches? I know it's hard, but keep the faith. Let us know how you're doing.
Hang in there and best wishes,

Kasia,
Hun I am sorry about your weight loss plateau and maybe you might want to check out the Lap band board, I really do not know much about that but I remember hearing things and I would think you should be losing more them the 30 lbs in 6 months but I am not sure. Are you following what your Dr wanted you to do? (food and such)
Well keep us posted hun ~hugs~ I wish you the best
