I am really feeling like I am failing at this surgery right now. I lost 20 pounds pretty quickly in the first two weeks after surgery. Then I hit the dreaded 3 week stall. Well I am now in my fifth week and still no more weight loss. Did anyone else stall and for how long? I am still struggling in getting in all my protein and fluids, does that have anything to do with the stall? I can't drink protein shakes, they make me sick with horrible stomach cramps and diarrhea. I have bee relying solely on soft foods for my protein intake which is hard when I can only eat a quarter cup at a time. The fluids are a non stop struggle with not drinking and eating at the same time and waiting a half hour before and after a meal. I am really frustrated now and beginning to feel like I am going to be one of those people that the surgery won't work for. I'll admit I am not really consistent with exercise, my energy levels are still kind of low and my fibromyalgia pain is worse now than it has been in a while. I know I need to exercise more, the depression I have been feeling too has made me lose a lot of motivation. I am ready to give up.
