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

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
