I'm now 2 months post VSG, and have stalled in my weight loss and I don't know what to eat.

Hello,
First of all congratulations on your surgery! It is very common for patients' weight to stall at times (only to eventually fall again) after surgery. In addition to Dr. Garcia's excellent recommendations, I also caution you to be sure you are not consuming too many liquid calories. It is much easier for sleeve patients to consume too many calories through liquids than solid foods. This is because the liquids are digested more quickly than the solids, allowing patients to more easily "overeat" if consuming high-calorie liquids. Excessive liquid calories can stall and even reverse weight loss.
Best wishes in your recovery,
Dr. Moein

It's completely normal to feel frustrated, but you're actually doing fine. A 33-pound loss in 9 weeks is a great achievement, and weight stalls are common, especially around this time post-op. Your body is adjusting, and stalls usually break on their own as long as you stay consistent.
At this stage, you should focus on protein-rich foods, hydration, and portion control. While your doctor said you can eat anything, it's important to prioritize lean proteins like chicken, fish, eggs, and Greek yogurt, as well as some healthy fats and fiber-rich foods. Avoid processed carbs, sugary foods, and fried items, as they can slow weight loss and cause energy crashes. Instead of six meals a day, try to listen to your hunger cues and eat only when needed, sticking to small, nutrient-dense portions.
Make sure you're drinking enough water, but not with meals, to prevent discomfort. If your weight is stalled, it may help to track your intake and make sure you're getting at least 60-80 grams of protein per day while keeping carbs lower. Also, focus on eating slowly and chewing thoroughly to avoid any digestive issues. If you're exercising, your body might be holding onto water as it repairs muscle, which can temporarily mask weight loss.
Your body is just adjusting, and the stall will pass.

Hello, This can be normal, there are several reasons to have a stall in the process. First try to get supervised in your process by a nutritionist better if you can get a main assistance by your main surgeon and bariatric team.Remember if your food intake is too small your body thinks that you are sick and try to reduce the speed of your methabolism, so if you want to increase your metabolism you better start to eat more frequently keeping in mind to always select healthy foods and snacks.Have a snack mid-morning and mid-afternoon t can be a few nuts, almonds, cashews, except peanuts, no more than 15 units. Avoid at all cost sweet course meal, bread, fried food, fast food or junk fats, even the diet sodas.Have a conversation with your bariatric team or approach a supporter group that can help you in this process, always maintain a direct communication with your doctor.My Best Wishes,
