I've been in a stall for almost 4 months, I've been drinking my water and eating clean. My stomach doesn't tolerate much protein so that's been my struggle. Since my last weigh in I've gained 5 pounds. I know it doesn't seem like a lot but I'm scared I won't lose anymore and I'll just gain. Idk what I'm doing wrong. I have a hip injury and haven't been able to workout like I'd like for the last 3 months. I'm scared. Am I done losing? Can I keep losing? What am I doing wrong? My one year is the 27 of this month and I've lost 135..

Remember you need something like 3500 calories to gain a pound... so if you have been eating clean id say more likely to be water weight... monitor your sodium and drink even more water... very easy to retain water... we have all been thru this

Stalls are very frustrating!  But hopefully you will be able to be more mobile soon?  Have you tried drinking some HIGH protein drinks?

How many calories are you getting each day? Are you tracking your intake somewhere? Some days when I look at what I've eaten it doesn't seem like much but when I check out my journal on MFP I'm at 1200-1300 calories. At this point I personally couldn't do this without tracking. 

What protein are you having a hard time tolerating? String cheese, sliced cheese, turkey pepperonis, egg whites, ground turkey, lean beef and milk are all staples in my diet.

I am concerned about my lack of weight loss too.  I had a revision on 10-4-2012 and to date I have lost only 10lbs.  I have been told that with the sleeve, weight loss is very slow. This is so frustrating.
