Plateus and Depression
Hi Everyone!
I had my Open RNY on 6/7/04 and have lost 45 lbs thus far. However, i've reached my 1st plateau. I haven't lost but about 2 lbs in the past two weeks...and even though my mind "knows" that this is just the beginning...the heart is depressed about it all. Any suggestions about how to "kick it up a notch" and get back on the losing track? I have been trying to get in all my fluids and protein, and have been walking daily. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks!!
How much are you eating? I was about 6 weeks out when I had me first palteau. It was hard but I started eating a little more and I lost 13 lbs in 2 weeks. It was great. This whole surgery thing is strange on the weight loss stuff. I can go weeks without losing much and then bam I lose a lot at once. I like that part. lol Good luck. Eat at least 1000 calories!
