AHHH! 2 1/2 weeks ago I hit 200 pounds! 200. First time in years. I was so excited about breaking 200 for the first time since I was in my 20's that I kicked it into high gear. I started walking more everday 2-4 miles. Plus an extra 30 min walk on my lunch at work.

I started drinking more Water and making sure I was hitting my Protein goals. I HAVE HIT A STALL. Not only did I flat out stall. I actually gained a pound. I am 201 now. Weigh in Day is Sunday I am going to be a pound up again!

What the heck!?? If I were going to GAIN weight I would sit on the couch and eat twinkies! I certainly wouldn't be dragging myself to the track every night after work!

I am on Week 15. Anyone else hitting this? Anybody know how to fix it?

I am almost at 12 weeks and I have also hit a stall that has lasted almost 2 weeks. I was the same as you - right at 200 and SO excited that I hit 199.8. Now I have been up and down a lb and a half either over and under 200 for the past 2 weeks. I haven't been exercising as much as I did previously but have had other stalls as well where I was working out almost every day. I want to be down another 6 lbs by Thanksgiving but am getting discouraged that I won't be able to do it!

I am 8 weeks out and have been experiencing steady weight loss....unit last week! I read all about the 3 week stalls and since i was beyond 3 weeks thought I was in the clear. But i've been at 231 since October 31. I did take a bit of a break as far as working out daily (walking/bike), and I know i've been eating more carbs than previously. Maybe that has something to do with it. I just can't help but to worry, "Is this all i"m going to lose??" I would hate to have gone through this whole ordeal and then only lose a minimal amount of weight.

Stalls happen and gaining a pound here and there once in a while happens. I went up three pounds then started down again. I have lost a whopping 1 1/2 pound in the last three weeks.

Sometimes upping the calories gets you out of starvation mode then drop the calories and you lose some weight.

Hang in there, you will break the stall soon enough.

I was sleeved August 8th and was in a stall for 5 weeks!!! It just broke this week when I lost over 2 lbs. I have been SO discouraged and was convinced the weight loss was over. I really hope my stall is over and I keep moving downward on the scale. I feel your pain and frustrations guys.

Thank you guys....it is nice to know I am not alone. I go for my 3 month appointment with my surgeon today. I am going to go over my food intake and see if maybe I have done something wrong. It does make me feel better knowing there are people out there going through the exact same thing and feeling the same way....I just hope this isnt' "it". I really want to lose more.
