What type of surgery did you have? Are you following the rules regarding what to eat? Getting enough protein?

Don't worry the slower it comes off the better!!! Your body is catching up. You will go thru many stand stills. Get the tape measure out I bet your losing inches! This is not a diet. You will not fail this time! Make sure you are eating real food not protein powder. Protein powder will put your weight back on you within 3 years. Eat every 3 hours whatever you can tolerate. FOOD NOT PROTEIN POWDER! I am almost 8 years out and I am still under 130 lbs from 247lbs.

I followed my Dr's diet to the "T". I was only allowed protein for the first three phases, then I was allowed green veggies until I lost 75% of my weight.

Your body is still adjusting to the wls and is screaming wtf did you do to me? Stalls are extremely common at this stage of the game. Come to think about it, it's very common no matter where you are in this journey that we are taking.
