STUCK ON SCALE-Did it happen to you?



Recommended Posts

2 weeks post op down 24 lbs, 3rd week post op same weight. Is this the point where you get stuck? I work out 5 days a week burning 400 plus calories. Now they say it takes 7 days to gain or loose. What is up? I moved to pureed food 7 days ago, is this it? Some of you experienced sleevers HELP?

Yup I had a 10 day stall, up and down the same 3 pounds for 10 days. I also gain one or two days every month. I am beginning to think it's ovulation, and I get way hungry for crap for2 days before my period and have lost only one pound the week before. I am only twelve weeks out and a little obsessed with the scale, 2-3 times a day, so time will tell. Just keep eating Protein, getting fluids, and exercising. Btw, antihistamines make me retain Water too.

I had a little stall around three weeks. My clothes were fitting bigger though. I really think it is something biological because so many sleevers go through stalls here and there. Then the scale starts moving again.

Hey! I'm with you! I'm 23 days out and stalling. I'm about 17lbs down so I'm pretty happy anyway! I'm glad this board is here so I knew to expect it. I'm trying to get the Protein it-that is supposed to help. Sounds like you are doing better with working out!

Yep! I stalled at the 3 week mark too (for about 10 days.)

I've also noticed a trend around the 3 month mark here where a lot of us have had a BIG stall (22 days.) So just be prepared. Even though will all *know* they will happen, and that they are mostly unavoidable, they still suck.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
