I'm about to be 3 months post op and have lost 45 lbs. I'm very happy with my weight loss but I've hit my second stall. I'm already going on 2 weeks without losing. Is this normal at this point?

Yes, this is normal. Don't worry about the stalls because you can stall for 2 to 3 weeks and then all of a sudden you will drop 10lbs. It can be discouraging but just stay consistent with getting your Proteins and Water in and you will start to see the scale move again!

I am sitting at 3 1/2 months and OMG yes stalls happen... right now im struggling to hit a major milestone and am fustrated because im only loosing ounces instead of pounds... big differance that is affecting me is Water weight... its getting warm outside here so im drinking way more water and unsweet tea then i have so far.. .the water weight is slowling me down but im sure my body will get back into the groove as soon as it balances out. Hang in there!

What about a stall the 2nd week after surgery? I've been working to get my Protein requirements, not always hitting them. Might have been a bit low on fluids earlier in the week, but I've fixed that now. And I've been at the same weight for 5 days now!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
