How long was your "3 week stall"?



Recommended Posts

My only stall was for one week at 5 months post op.

Not everyone hits a stall. I lost just a few ounces but I consistently lost every week until 4 moths out when I gained a couple of ounces one week. After 5 moths out I had occasional weeks where I gained a few ounces, but I always lost the following week. I went into surgery with a huge muscle mass and I think it really helped. Post-op I did strength training three days a week and walked foe an lour two days a week till I hit goal.

I thought it was just me! I lost 33 lbs in 3 weeks and I have been stalled for 2 weeks. Crazy feeling because the weight came off so easy early on.

Yes, I went back on liquids today's to see if I can get the scale moving.

I was just going to post something like this..I am very disappointed ... I am 5 wks out and i have lost 34 lbs which is really good but for the past 2 weeks I've only lost 3 lbs??? And I've been doing cardio and eating right.. I just felt like I'm doing all this hard work for nothing.. And now I feel like i will never hit goal, specially when I have to loose more than 100lbs to get to my goal... I'm glad I'm not alone!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
