I'm right there with you. I have stayed the same weight since Friday so that's six days. the only thing that makes me feel better is that its predicted that most of us would have that dreaded 3 weeks stall. To look on the bright side we're probably doing something right!! Lol :-D I'm sure we will succeed, we just have to do what we're doing and greatness will follow, (along with a few stalls here and there.)

It was such a huge thrill to watch the scale keep dropping and now it hasn't moved for the past few days its such a downer and I'm trying super hard not to become depressed over it.

OMG god, thank you for admitting to stall. I'm so bummed I have only lost a pound from my post op visit. First I blamed my old ass scale, thinking well I will use this a new baseline but the damn thing hasn't budged except for up (in the evenings bc I like to torture myself).

I track my calories, 450-550 per day, 60g Protein (mainly from shakes but slowly adding more puréed food) and well hydrated with Water (no artificial staff).

My exercise efforts are dismal but this stall has me so unmotivated. Went back to work this week so I'm trying to reincorporated exercise but with so few calories I should lose something! Ugh, just need to vent this out....

Sad to admit, but so happy to see other July 8 ppl stalled, feel less like a failure.

Arghhhhhh

I feel the same! My Dr said that during my whole weight loss journey, it will be like this. Big amounts of weight will drop off during some periods, and then a complete stall or slight gain during other times. He said it will go back and forth like that through the whole journey. I hope this eases your mind a little more. (i haven't lost in almost a week either)

Thanks. That does help to know we are all going through the same thing. Everyday I'm starting o feel more "normal".

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      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? 🤷‍♀️
