Heading towards week 3-looking to NOT stall

I know that stalls are inevitable, but I am so happy right now I do not want to stall yet. Tomorrow is the start of my 3rd week and I want to prevent a stall if that is possible. I have monthly goals and I know that the sleeve is just a "tool" and not the answer. I will continue to measure all my food out. Weigh myself in the morining, and make sure that my fitbit says 10,000 steps.

On wednesday I should get cleared for exercise. I know where I failed in the past (life before sleeve) I wont let that happen again. My doctor gave my 6 colored pictures of my insides (gall bladder, stomach before and after and all the mounds of belly fat!) those pictures are my motivator. It has been such a long time since I felt this good and I am only just begining my journey! :D

  • Many people stall but not all. I haven't stalled yet at 8 weeks. I have no clue why some do and some don't. However, I only lose 2 lbs a week. Slow and steady. Wish I had pix like that, an excellent

I stalled weeks 4-5 for no reason - I was following the plan, not cheating... it just happens! But the last few weeks its coming off again. Don't get down if you do stall - just keep working the program.

I am sure I will stall. I just hope it is later. I am a slow loser which I am cool with. I don't drop huge numbers but I expected that. As long as I am dropping something.

I am 2.5 months out and I haven't stalled yet. Like NMJG, I am losing slow and steady but I always have a loss at the end of the week. It might be 4lbs , it might be 1 but I haven't stopped losing. There is no point obsessing, especially if it hasn't even happened. :)
