Is This Long Of Stall Normal?

I am just now 6 months. I have been in the 18os for over 2 months now. I have been going up and down the same 3 lbs for atleast 5-6 weeks. Has anyone stalled this long? I think that I may be at a point that my body won't let go of anymore of my weight. I'm curious to know how long you guys have stalled?

  • I noticed that my body has a rhythm..... I loose a significant amount of weight... stall, gain a pound or 2, then start losing again..... weird.....like it's not letting go easy... wickedness.....

  • Thanks for the responses! After I realized I wasn't alone I hit 179 today!

  • Yes this was what happened to me, I stayed at 180-185 for around 3 months. I had to fight my way out of the 180's. I am now at 175 maybe 174 today.

I am 4.5 mos out, and stalled for about a month ( at 3.5 mos out) at 172!!!!! arrgggh!!!! It just sucked and felt like I was never getting out of that number! however... I started losing FAST again and am at 157 today! :) So I guess its normal. just eat and do what you're supposed to. good luck!

I have been in the 180s since May/June, but I am progressively getting lower. I am now staying close to 181. I upped my calories for a bit and now I'm taking in less calories again and am showing a weight loss again. I hope to get into the 170s soon.

So glad i read this post I have been at a stall for 3 months. I'm very frustrated and aggravated. I'm trying to add more exercise. I weigh myself everyday I'm sure that's not best thing to do. Very disappointed.

I stalled for six weeks near the beginning. I had to take measures to get it moving. I was following directions To the letter but, When I shaved off some carbs and increased my cardio, It all started going down again.

Yes, I've been in the 230's for over 2 months. Just keep swimming!

Oh yeah, but I have been shrinking though, so all is well.

You have to get your Water in too.

I'm so glad Ms. April Dawn that you were able to see 179 yesterday. :)

I saw 179.4 on my scale today! I had been in the 180s for months, and I am sure I'm not completely done with them, but I am seeing 179, and the stall is over. :)

It will happen, SmileCharmer. Keep on going.

Well, it's been about 3 weeks since I last posted this and I only stayed at 179 for a day. I'm still at 181 and I can't get the scale to budge only one pound up or down. I'm trying to realize that if this it and I can't lose anymore I should be happy although it's still very discouraging! Maybe I shouldn't have introduced carbs into my diet but I work out everyday and I find it hard to keep a balance. When I work out I'm definately hungrier and it's harder to control my apetite.
