How Long Do 'stalls' Last?



Recommended Posts

Hello everyone! I was sleeved on Feb. 15, 2012. After surgery I lost some weight up until approximately Feb. 25 ish. Since then I haven't lost any weight. I know this is normal but it's been about 2 weeks now. How long do these stalls last? I'll be calling my nitritionist on Monday but wanted input from those that actually have had them. Would love to hear your story. Thank you and God bless :)

My stall began at about 10 days to two weeks out. It lasted about two weeks and I've dropped 7 pounds since I broke it. (: try not to focus on the scale so much. A call to the NUT is good though to make sure you're doing everything you should (:

So far at 3 months out there is 1-2 weeks where I don't lose a lb but I have some good weeks that I can lose 2-3 lbs . So yeah about 2 weeks , everybody is different and is frustating but we must have patience . I hope the scale moves soon for you .

I've found stalls last about two weeks. Keep on plan and it'll all be ok!

I'm 11 months out and have been stalled for 2-3 MONTHS!!! I have been within 1/2 pound of Onederland and just keep rocking back and forth on the same pound. I am about the think this may be where my body is settling. Not too discouraged, because I can easily live the rest of my life like I am now. Much better than 104 pounds ago. I am just disappointed that I may never reach my goal. Maybe I was being unrealistic. Anyway...Kathe

stalls last as long as they last. Start really looking for the NSVs. Are your clothes looser, do you have more stamina?

It will break and you will continue to lose as long as you stay on plan. :)

Good luck!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
