I was sleeved 4/22 and lost 15 lbs in the first two weeks, which I was thrilled with. Now I've been stuck at the same weight for the last week straight.

I walk daily, drink ~7 cups of liquid a day, get 60-75 g of protein, and am sitting around 1000 calories usually.

I know this is normal and my body is playing catch up and everything. Just wondering everyone else's experiences with this. Anyway for me to help that scale move? Or about when did it start moving for you again?

@@EvilTwin Everyone stalls at 3 weeks. Try to change things up a bit. But - 25lbs lost is a lot.

It's what the doctor has me on until I move to real food

I'm at week three. Lost 25 lbs since surgery. Been at the same weight for the last 5 days. I am getting about 110 grams of Protein, about 1100 cal a day, and 60 oz of Water daily. I go on a 6.1 mile walk every morning that takes me 90 minutes to do. And usually walk another mile or two with my usual daily activity. Can't figure why the weight just stopped coming off.

Almost everyone experiences a stall about three weeks after surgery. You aren't necessarily doing anything wrong except maybe expecting to lose at a constant rate.

@@Babbs has a great explanation of the mechanics of the third week stall.

Where do you get the BMI and Body Weight tickers? Is that on this app or another? Thanks!

I see this is an old thread, just being revisited, but I had heard mention of the "3 week stall." Now, I'm living it! I was steadily losing weight every single day and then at 3 weeks it stopped. The scale has remained the same for the whole week, despite me doing nothing different. I still have a long ways to go. It does make me nervous because I've done many very low calorie diets in the past and my body adjusts to the lower calories and then stops losing. I asked my surgeon about this before surgery to make sure the same wouldn't happen and he said he didn't think it would. I'm hoping this is just the 3 week stall that people have spoken about.

Does anyone know WHY a lot of people stall at 3 weeks? Is there any way to help break it? How long does it typically last?

What did everyone do to get the weight coming off again? I'm stuck too!
