Been there too, change up what you are eating, add more protein and exercise more. We all have them, just stay focused and you will begin to lose again.

I was stalled for 6 weeks stuck in the 220s. I am jut breaking out of it. Change up your food/ exercise for a bit. It is completely normal. Just be patient. Your body is catching up with itself.

It is heartbreaking for sure!! I had a almost 8 week stall. Then had 2 months I had only lost 14 pounds!! But I lost over 50 the first month and now I am losing 2-3 pounds a week again and I will be 7 months post op on the 29th.

Well my weight loss has slowed back down. Have lost 4 pounds since June 1st

Yup hit my first stall too. Sigh. So I upper my protein and walked longer...did arm toning video. I refuse to freak out over this!

We will always have stalls, but never fear when it breaks you will see results...also you loose inches too....

up your Protein, drink more Water....walk more are just a few things I do...

Oh and I hide the scale too..for me in the beginning all I wanted to do was see daily results...Now I have taught myself..I will do what i need to do, and my pouch will do the rest I don't need the extra stress of weighing myself (This is just something I do)

good luck

I too was stalled for two weeks. I'm only a month out and have lost about 15 lbs since surgery. Total almost 50. I refuse to freak out too!! I knew it would happen but already!! Dang it!

I actually found that getting less protein for a day and having more calories helped...I was stuck for 2 weeks ...also increased excercise ;)

Im 4 weeks out today and have been stuck at the same weight for a week. Yesterday i did what someone else mentioned i pulled my protein back a bit and upped the calories and this morning i was down 3 lbs.

I am four weeks out. Get liquids in, but usually protein is between 25-30 grams a day. I just can't do anything more than that right now. I am eating about 2 tablespoons a meal, 4 meals a day. Probably 400 calories. I have stalled for past week. Is it too few calories or not enough protein that is causing the stall? Walking 2 miles each day.

Yes...you need more protein especially so early on...I'm 5mos post op and I held back on my protein for a day...but I was able to get in more calories. ..you however need to follow dr. Orders...get all your protein in...

Finally...the scale moved again. I had a good day yesterday with protein. I actually found a smoothie I can stomach with a whole scoop of protein powder! Yea!
