Anyone else loose like this?

Ahhhhh Nkara, well to the "fun" of weight loss surgery. Stalls are natural part of weight loss. It seems the body “catches on to what we have been doing, and holds onto everything. After a while, the lost restarts and things go well.

However, stalls can also because by eating (a) too much (b) not enough. I know it sounds a little contradictory, and I will try to explain.

Too much: While we need to make sure we hit our protein requirements (60-80 grams, or whatever your Doctor told you), we need to make sure the carbs, calories, etc are “acceptable. Remember, you don’t want to make your 80 grams of protein by eating 4 gallons of ice cream or a starchy carb.

Not enough: Again, make sure you are meeting your daily protein requirements. THIS IS IMPORTANT TO WEIGHT LOSS. The body is a marvelous machine, and it will protect itself. If one doesn’t eat enough, the body’s metabolism will slow down - in order to keep itself functioning. If a person intake is less then what it expels, the body will start to “store food.

Remember on this entire journey you will "average" out to 1 - 2 pounds a week. Of course you will lose faster in the beginning, then slow down as you go on. After two years I lost about 188 pounds, which comes out to AN AVERAGE of 1.81 pounds over 104 weeks. - Of course I've lost more than that in some months, but you get the picture.
