Most people have a stall at around the three week mark, but stalls can come anytime. Most people are stairstep losers - lose a bunch and then rest for a week or two, then lose some more and rest. I am one of the abberations who didn't really have any stalls (only one week where I didn't lose anything) during my entire loss period.

First off congrats on your 50 lbs in 6 weeks. That is amazing. Im just over two months out and have stalled twice at weeks 3 and week 7. When I started working out hard at the gym during week 7 my body stalled again trying to fight due to all the calories I'm losing. Youre doing great. Keep up the outstanding job.

Stalls can come at any time. I've seen people that stalled almost immediately after surgery. And then then there is people like me, I didn't stall till I hit 3 1/2 months then I stalled for 7 weeks. Keep the faith , you be vigilant in doing your part and your sleeve will not let you down.

I wish my stall didn't start until 6 weeks out. Try 10 days Post Op then you can complain about it being early ;)

At 10 days out you are still on liquids. I had the same problem but that all changed when I finally got to start eating food again! Just wait and it will happen!

A 7 week long stall. That must have been tough, mentally.

It was frustrating. But I've seen stalls that were 4 months & I knew I hadn't stalled yet, so I didn't allow myself to get discouraged. I just really hated posting every week that I was "still stalled". I really felt bad puting that out there as I was afraid it could discourage others.

I hadn't stalled once, now I'm 3.5 months out and in my 3rd week of this stall. It's annoying jumping on the scales and not seeing them move, but I have lost a lot so far, so as long as I'm not gaining, I'm ok.

I stalled the entire 3rd month, but went down 4 pant sizes. Just busted the stall yesterday. All the sudden 4 lbs gone in 3 days. Yay!

      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...

      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
