Whats the longest stall you have had and at what month did u stop losing?

What is the longest stall everyone has had?? I was sleeved Sept. 17 and my first stall lasted about 2 weeks. This time it's been about 3 weeks and I'm nervous. Now that I my calorie intake is higher I'm scared I won't lose the weight. I have about 900 to 1200 cal a day it varies from day to day. Does anyone have any advice as to what I can do to jump start my weight loss again??

I had a good three week stall beginning 2nd week of December and just ending this past week! I was sleeved on 11/12 so it started at four weeks post op. I am most definitely the slowest loser on these boards -

9/26/12 I lost 31 lbs. I have been in a stall for 7 weeks. I have done it all to make it stop it won't let up so I'm on a 48-hour all liquid diet such lovely fun. So hang in there :). So I think I'm the slowest hands down :P

I have been sleeved 11 weeks and I haven't really experienced a stall yet. There have been weeks where I have lost only a pound, but I consider that fine...As long as I am losing, I feel good!

Yea I know what you mean about the slowest loser me too but they say the less you had to lose the slower you will go.

That's really good nerdy because these stalls are no fun at all!! I would definitely be happy with 1 lb a week.

Wow your definitely doing more than me lol. Yea your right we will get through it :-) thanks for the encouragement.

Mine was 9 weeks! I did EVERYTHING!

Finally I started chugging the Water. A gallon a day. For a week. Then the next week I lost 4 pounds them 6 then 3. This was in May. Now ever since then I drink that much every day and haven't been stalled since. 124 down 20 pounds to go!

Wow that is cool!! I will definitely try that and I know I HAVE to cut back on carbs! I guess carbs are just easier when I can't cook like when I'm at work.

Carbs, carbs, carbs. Such a love hate relationship. I have done high then low, I feel like poo on Adkins low (20) but think my nut is crazy when she says 110-120 at a year out. I stay at 60-70. I know you can lose the weight on super low, but as soon as you get to goal and start incorporating them you are going to gain again. I finally found a number I was happy with where I could still lose weight. You just have to find that # and stick with it. Good luck.

7 weeks

To get a boost and break the stall' date=' increase Protein, cut carbs completely out and only drink Water for a week.[/quote']

Your exactly right! I know that but have been having a hard time doing it. I'm definitely gonna get back to the basics and let y'all know what happens
