3 month post op stall?



Recommended Posts

Howdy, I weigh in every Saturday, this is the first Saturday I havent lost between 3-5 lbs....kind of a bummer.....I only lost 1 lb.

Anyone have a stall around this time? My calorie counts are 1000-1300 mostly on the low end, I like to go up and down to keep my metabolism guessing. I could always exercise more from day one......just curious if anyone out there stalled at 3 months........

Any comments welcome.........

Have a great day!

Kim

i also stalled at 3 months.. just rode it out. there's no magic trick to help. Keep your Water and protien intake up and you exercise going and you will be fine.. Sometimes the body needs a rest, even tho were not losing lbs. we're losing inches.. Good luck

Stalls happen often after the first 3 week stall. For me, I think the pattern is stall a week lose for two weeks, repeat. Running for an hour every day for me seems to help the continual downward trend. The biggest positive I have noticed is the reduction in chest/stomach and legs. The scale is no longer a weekly need for me. I measure success based on how my clothes fit or how I feel or how I look in the mirror. Can now wear size 34/35 jeans and medium/large shirts. I seem to be 1/2 way between sizes which is a little odd. Just keep meeting and beating your Water, Protein, and exercise goals. Your stall will break. It is just a matter of time.

I'm in the midst of my stall. I was sleeved 10/25/12 and lost 99lbs before my 3 month checkup. I haven't lost a pound since. It's frustrating, but I know once it's over I'll drop another 15-20lbs quickly. So, we just have to be patient.

      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! 😞
