Yes, a stall is common in weeks 2 - 4. Don't worry about it, keep following your doctor's instructions about Protein, Water and calories and you will start on the losing path before you know it!

I hit a stall week 2 & 3, and 7, which was after Christmas. It is natural.

Is there a stall buster, or will it just bust naturally. Tomorrow will be Week 3, and Ive been at a stall the last 4-5 days.

I'm almost to my 6th month and I just hit one heck of a stall. I also had one my 2nd week and at least once a month for a few days. Do they stop eventually? This last one lasted for about 6 weeks! I was beginning to think that was it for me and I wasn't gonna lose anymore. I know it's normal but geez. I've heard several times to "go back to basics". Or a 5 day pouch test to kick start the losses back up again. I'm

gonna do both lol. Fingers crossed! :)

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

      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?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
