Stand still

[Skinnybitch33]

Hello! I am 5 months post op and am down 76 lbs. I want to lose 40 more to hit my goal weight. I was doing so well, but have hit a stand still. In the past 3 weeks, I have only fluctuated 1-4 lbs. I haven’t changed my eating much, but I have started exercising. Do you think the exercising is causing my plateau? What are some things you suggest to jumpstart my weight loss again? Thanks in advance!

Yep, yep, that's pretty much the exact same time as I plateaued. I continued to plateau for a couple of months. Now, you said you hadn't change your eating much but what does that mean in real time? Are you eating foods you should not be eating? Are you eating too much? I think you might be able to give your metabolism a boost by exercising but that's not a guarantee. If you are on the same track I was on you just have to bide your time. It'll go away. Welcome to the group!

When I said it changed, I just meant I added new foods like salad and other health options I can now eat.
