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.

yes but i increased my daily walking and my stall broke

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

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'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? 🤷‍♀️
