The Stall
Hey guys! Just wondering how long everybody had the dreaded '3week' stall? I had a one on one dietician consult yesterday and she told me it could last between week 3 to week 7! I have been the same weight give or take 0.4lbs!! What should I change up? Trying not to get more than 800 calls a day! Surgery was 9/19.
I didn't have a stall until 14 weeks and it only lasted a week. I firmly believe that keeping my water and protein up was the key.

Chissy... Do you workout? If so, when did you start. I have a personal trainer that I see twice a week. I told him I would be out a month at the least.

Honestly, no. I haven't started a routine yet. I wanted to let my body do its thing for a while and then jump start it again when things slow down. **puts fingers in ears when vets start yelling at me**
However, I could have started at probably 2 months out. I had a hard time getting enough calories and protein at the beginning to keep me from feeling constantly weak due to my reflux going I diagnosed for so long. I do plan to start running soon. My street is not safe to run on, so I'm currently researching treadmills :)
