It happens and is your body making adjustments. Stick to the plan and it will move soon enough..

I am 3 1/2 weeks out and I have chosen not to weigh myself until possibly next week. I don't want to know if I have the "stall" so I'm not going there yet because I don't want to feel discouraged!

Good luck

At week 4 I hit a stall that lasted 3 weeks! It really was frustrating at first, until I read all the posts about this being perfectly normal. This past week it finally broke at I lost 6 lbs since I last weighed myself (every Friday morning I get on the scale).

The bottom line is that this is a life long journey. Worry about establishing lifetime habits. My biggest challenge is slowing down while I am eating...I still want to wolf food down.

I tried to keep the average weight loss in my mind during the stall. Even when I was at 4 lbs per week average (it was 8 lbs per week before the stall) that is still awesome and my ultimate weight goal was still going to happen this year!

Yes, you guys are probably in a stall. It happens. Expect it to happen again. And possibly even again. Don't get discouraged! I am the queen of stalls, and I'm 9 pounds from goal. Just becuase you stall, doesn't mean you're finished losing weight. Stay with your program, and the scale will move again. Just takes a little patience ;)

Stalls happen! Then they break. Then they happen again and break again. Keep doing what your plans says to do and be patient! Your patience will be rewarded... Until you hit the next stall. ????

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
