I'm a 38 yof who was overweight. I weighed in on 3/19 at 248lbs I had my sleeve done 3/19/13 and I'm a a stall. I feel like my weight is going nowhere. I'm eating my Protein, keeping track of all my food intake. Anyone have advice??

I had my sleeve on exactlly a month before you, and I ran into the same 'problem'

So, I stopped getting on the scale, and took picture and body measurements instead. I promised myself to weigh only once a month.

Focus on healing yourself and focus on the big picture. You will start losing the weigh again! It's like waiting on a kettle to boil.

60gm of Proteins, and at least 64 floz of Water everyday. Hard, but work up to it!

Give your body a break, it's been through a lot! Your body's just figuring things out.

I will be rooting for you!

I know it's hard, but please be patient and keep doing what you're doing, because it will pass and the weight will drop. We almost all go through stalls. It's a part of the process. If you stay the course you will pass this bump in the road. Do not let discouragement cause you to get off your plan. Believe me, it WILL pass. Hang in there.

I had a 3 week stall at 3 weeks post sleeve and then list for two weeks then another 2 week stall. I know it's a normal process of the body readjusting so keep doing what you are doing and walk walk walk drink your Water and don't worry!! I hate stalls too but I have to be patient!!!

THANK YOU EVERYONE!!!! I am pushing through, it's hard getting the 64 oz of fluids and Protein in every day...of course you all know this. I am rooting for everyone out there because this is most definitely a full time job and something that takes dedication. I really hope we ALL achieve our goals!!

I joined a gym and can't wait to be cleared to lift a bit to start toning and of course I'm walking and it REALLY helps when you feel discomfort and know you're full.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
