I literally stalled for like over two weeks, it was horrible! It does pass though, don't worry :)

Mine was July 11 and just today started seeing the scale move, 26lbs in 6 weeks...after a 3 week stall. I changed from working out in evening to morning and added more protein.

Adding in the protein helps a lot. I am 10 weeks out and stopped taking the protein drinks in the morning, I experienced a two week stall and decided to start back. I see the scale is moving(praise the Lord). I was ready to pull my hair out, and I had to remember all that my body is getting adjusted to. Try to keep your cool and stay off the scale. I know it is hard, just remember you are not gaining!!!! Congratulations!

Thank u thank u!! I'm so impatient, I want it now LOL! The inches seem much more dramatic than the pounds.

Get used to those stalls, they happen often...but then bamb....you lose again, and it is like christmas! lol

:)

I stalled in weight but I notice I also got smaller at the same time. I'd check my measurements if I were you.

I'm stalled too at 31/2 weeks out and it's frustrating because I'm eating so little and have been very active. Ahhhh I just want to scream.

I was stalled for about 2 weeks, 2 weeks post-op. It was so frustrating. Then when I got to eat full liquids, it was if the scale started moving up. I freaked out and called my doc. They said it's normal and it will pass. As of yesterday, I finally started to see the scale move and it's such a great feeling. I was sleeved Aug 6 and I think it's more inches off my waist then the pounds that's keeping me motivated.

I just recently Stalled out at 9 weeks out... Today, weighed in at the doctor's office and I was officially below 200 lbs!!! You just have to keep telling yourself that the scale is just a number, and that the non-scale victories are much more important! For me, I recently had to go shopping for my cousin's wedding a week and a half ago because nothing I had fit me anymore. To top that off, For the first time in over 10 years, I did not have to shop in the Plus Size section! I was excited to say the least.

Thank you for sharing this! I thought I was the only one! I have been so upset, I have had like a 2 week stall, and really to scream, cry, and pull my hair out!! I even went up two pounds, which really did make me cry! I am going to try to add more protien and work out more. Suzjag, girl, I want it now too, more like yesterday even! LOL Oh when we're all skinny, we'll look back and laugh, right? Hopefully. Best wishes everyone!

Remember just when you get disgusted, measure your inches lost. I always check out my inches lost when the scale isn't moving. It's a huge motivator! And I will say it again, because I need to hear it too: we didn't get this way over night, it takes time to get it off...patience grasshopper ..it will come.
