How long was your "3 week stall"?



Recommended Posts

I know stalls are inevitable, and I know the dreaded "3 weeks stall" is fairly common, but how long did yours last? I've been gaining/losing the same 4lbs for 2.5 weeks. I've been in contact with my dietician, who slightly altered my plan, but still no change. So how long was your stall?

Everyone is different. Mine was at four weeks and lasted a week. At three weeks you should be exercising like walking and some resistant workouts.

Mine was a seven week stall.. Or more! I stopped counting and just ignored the time. It slowly started to come off and I tried to be patient and just work with what I was dealt.

How often did you weigh? Did the weight eventually come off?

I only weigh myself once a week at the most or sometimes every 2 weeks. I lose a lb here and there, but extremely slow. I'm ok with it.. As long as its less than what I was, I'm happy. I think the closer you are to goal the much harder it is to lose.

I think I remember that your almost a year out, right? How was your weight loss after the stall? My biggest fear is that I went through all of this for nothing. At least I know I'm not alone.

Yeah. Mine started at week 2 and has lasted a few weeks so far. I lost a lot in the beginning (14 lbs before surgery and 17 lbs right after) so I haven't been too worried yet.

I k ow I shouldn't be worried. I lost 10lbs before surgery and 22 in the first 2 weeks after, but it sucks weighing every morning and the scale goes down, then up again

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?
