Discovered Something About Stalls



Recommended Posts

At the end of a stall, the skin and about an inch down becomes soft and "loose". Perhaps someone has a more scientific description of the process. The next couple days the stall ends and the weight begins to drop again.

I have not experienced a "stall" as of yet. I am getting ready to start week 6 post op. I have noticed that after week 3 my weight loss slowed dramatically (1-2 lbs/week) I have lost a total of 27.7 lbs as of last weeks weigh in. I am terrified I'm going to hit a stall and already feel like the weight loss is slow! Agh

I hate stalls. Had the first one as expected but I'm out.

BTW- I keep waiting to tell you I love your profile pic. Springer?

I've decided that I'm not ever going to call them "stalls" again. From now on they are to be known as "Adjustment Periods"....because that is, essentially, what they are. We lose weight so quickly, and then our bodies need a bit of time to adjust to the new reality of things. During my "Adjustment Periods" I typically lose inches...which I don't do while I'm in a rapid weight loss phase. In the end its all good....lose weight, lose inches....get healthy!! :)

All the best,

Laura

Be ready, I didn't get my first stall till I was 3 months out. Then, I spent 3weeks at 210 and this makes my second week at 205. Good thing for me I'm a very optimistic person. And I've spent enough time on this forum to know that this won't last forever(even though it does feel like it).

Oh boy, if 1 pound feels slow, I can't imagine 2 weeks at the same during my honeymoon stage. Ha! It will get better.

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...
