Early Stall!

I'm 3 weeks out, lost 25 lbs (including pre-op diet) and I'm stalled for over a week now. Has anyone else had a stall this early?

    The three week stall is the most common, notorious stall. It's perfectly normal. Mine lasted for 7 days some people's last longer.

YES! Me too! I am 4 weeks out and I lost 17-18 lbs by week 2 but have stalled for the last 2. (my starting weight was 220). I am just starting to use my treadmill, hoping it will help. good luck.

so glad I saw this, I have just started using my treadmill hoping it will help. do you think 15 min. 2X a day is enough- my speed is set at 2 I think.

I was already doing 30 minutes per day. i was doing 15 minutes twice a day. and i stalled so i had to increase it to 60 minutes per day. since i increased it to 60 minutes per day i have lost 8 pounds. I increased my walking on July 26th

;)

ahhhhh! 60 min. a day!? wow! I better re-think my workout plan! thanks so much. 8 lbs. sounds great! keep up the good work Susie! good luck.

Glad I read this thread.... I also need to increase my walking... I am almost two weeks out this coming Tuesday & have only loss 5 lbs since surgery

Yes, I am 4 weeks out, and after the first week, I stalled for 2 weeks!! I was so confused as why, since my lifestyle had totally changed. The scale finally moved again this week, and I've lost 4 lbs. I haven't worked out, since I was feeling pretty run down. I was only active doing house chores. I am sure when I start a walking program that scale will move faster. You are not alone!!!!

thanks ladies! It's been at least 10 or 11 days and my scale is STUCK. I keep thinking it MUST be broken, but I know it's just a stall. I've been working out 4 days a week for an hour each time, so I know I'm doing the right thing, so I'll just have to wait it out. Can't wait to see that scale move!

I'm 3 weeks out' date=' lost 25 lbs (including pre-op diet) and I'm stalled for over a week now. Has anyone else had a stall this early?[/quote']

I'm in the exact same boat! It's frustrating but wveryone say it's gets better :(

Thanks sheree! U too!! How r you feeling ?

Susie, I am feeling great. I get a little more tired quicker than before surgery (July 6th) but I FEEL better?! hmmmm?
