10 Weeks Out 5 Week Stall !



Recommended Posts

I'll be 10 weeks out on Friday and haven't lost any weight for the last 5 weeks. How long does a normal stall last ?

We are all different and of course will lose weight at different rates, especially guys and gals. I too have been stuck, stalled for almost a month now. I keep telling myself to have patience, but I'm getting tired of looking at the same numbers, I want it to go down...NOW!

I had a 7+ week stall. Hang in there and remember not to starve your body or it will fight weight loss

Recently, I had a very long stall myself. I was stalled for about 2-3 months with zero loss, and bounced around the same 3-4 pounds. I was frustrated, and began to think possibly I was done losing. I finally decided that I needed to make some changes to continue my loss. I started exercising and going to the gym on a regular basis. I know we are supposed to start exercising from teh beginning, but I didn't. Adding the gym caused me to immediately start dropping again. I've lost about 15 lbs within the past month and a half by adding the gym into my daily routine. It really does work, and is actually far less effort then I chalked it up to be. My best advice, if your calories are on track, and everything else looks good, try upping your gym/cardio exercise and hopefully you'll see the movement again. Good luck!

Thanks ! It's nice to know I'm not the only one. And, my total gym came today so going to start adding in exercise as well.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
