the dreaded three week stall!

Wow, I remember the stall! For a week or so I thought I was going to be the only human ever who could have most of her stomach removed and still not lose any weight. It was right at week 3 for me, and mine lasted about 2 weeks, and then my weight loss kicked back in and maintained at about 3 pounds a week for the first 3.5 months and now I'm at about 2 pounds a week. That's fine with me as long as it keeps coming off!

I remember how frustrating that was, and everyone said it would happen and that it would pass, and it really does! (I know that doesn't help much while it's going on, but it really is true.) Just follow what your doctor told you, and things will get moving again! Good luck! You won't believe how awesome the next few months will be!

I just got out of my stall It was for ever and The weight is coming off now. I up,up my water and went to the gym and up my cals more.try stool softeners try prunes juice,milk of magnesia,if really bad suppositories I do Miralax and stood softer every day... Hope this helps..

oh thank you so much for this encouragement!! i had heard about the 3 week stall but thought it was a myth!! i am increasing protein & water today!!

I am going through it too! So frustrating...but thank you Jennie for your experience!

I was in a 4wk long stall!! I cut my carbs down to 50/day last Monday and have lost 7lbs since then...thanking God everyday!! I also tossed away the protein bars which I suspect has a lot of hidden ingredients....good luck to all of u that are in a stall, they are the worst!!!!!
