1 Month Weight Loss Stall



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone. I'm freaking out! Surgery was 4/4 and a month later I have lost a total of 21pounds since surgery and 30 since preop diet. But that's it! I have been stalled for about a week now loosing a pound over the past week. Not sure why this is happening I am not exceeding 600-700 calories a day and mostly Proteins. Has anyone had this happen? Getting REALLY sad that I went through this for 30 pounds!

Don't freak out, its common. If you search stall on here you will get so many threads between week these and five. It happens to us all. 21 pounds since surgery is great. Just remember that this will pass.

You're right on course I'd say. I'm one month out today and have lost 28. I also stalled and lost only two pounds this week. It's tough but I try not to compare my circumstance to others on the site or have unreasonable expectations. I wish I'd lost more, but I'm glad I've lost this much weight through hard work and sacrifice. Besides, I bet if we took an average of everyone at one month, we're probably just right where we should be. Relax.

Remember back when we'd kill to lose 20 lbs? That was a month ago.

Thanks everyone. I know that these stalls r common. I am thankful for the loss I've had so far BUT it's good to hear from others that have been or are going thru this... It's comforting :-)

I was sleeved on 4/3 and just today broke a 9 day stall. Not only did I not lose anything in those days, my body had the nerve to gain 2 pounds!!! I eat 700-800 calories a day, also mostly Protein.

Today, I not only lost the 2 pounds I gained during the last 10 days, but also 2 more. I hope this means the stall is over for good.

I'm six weeks out and have lost about 30 since surgery...I think we are doing great. Take your measurements I'm sure those numbers are falling off

Update!! As of tuesday morning I lost another 2 pounds but I am now traveling for work and they don't have a scale at the hotel so I can't weight myself till Saturday morning. That's good cause I was weighting myself EVERYDAY.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
