When did you have surgery? What does your daily diet look like?

I had surgery on March 23,2015. Right now my diet is...

b: premier protein shake

L: grilled chicken or turkey (normally whatever is leftover from the night before)

D: turkey meatballs(1 1/2) and spaghetti squash (had like 3 small bites) w/ maybe a tablespoon of marinara sauce. 

S: 1/4 quest protein bar(morning), cheese stick in the afternoon 

generally get about 2 bottles of water in, or the big powerade zero and 1 bottle of water

This was just based on last night. Sometimes I have yogurt for breakfast or a snack. Or deli turkey grilled a little bit for breakfast as well. Turkey burger patties, of course I don't eat a whole one in one sitting though.

I would add 2 more little meals/snacks during the day. Fill the fridge with lunch meat and cheese roll ups. Cottage cheese, I eat eggs first thing in the morning with a slice of cheese. Hard boiled eggs, pickled eggs, start trying to eat your proteins early and if you need to get a few more grams in at the end of the day, throw in a shake then. When I was in the weight loss stage, it was in a stair step pattern.  I would sit stagnent for 3 weeks and lose on the 4th week. It drove me crazy until I started to see the pattern.  Drink lots of water.

What are you calling a stall? Two days without any loss? Two weeks? Two months? Stall is pretty vague.

Today was 2 weeks without any loss. However there was also no gain so I'm still keeping my head up!

Did you take your measurements before surgery? I am glad I was instructed to do that by one of the 'vets' on here. When the scale would stop I would take my measurements and sure enough I was losing inches instead of pounds. If you havent yet, its not too late to do that. I was amazed that in one year I lost 16 inches around my waist.
