I have read tons of posts about stalls and thought I was mentally prepared for the infamous "three week stall". Despite all that, when it happened to me, I got a little down. It's so frustrating to be eating so little and not lose any.

***just venting***. :-)

I know what you mean :) I am 5 weeks post op and I have not lost any thing for two weeks now. I started to get down a little but then come here and read that it is pretty common so I am just doing what I am supposed to do and waiting to start losing again. I have lost 60 lbs in 6 weeks Three weeks before surgery and three weeks after so I am sure that is a big part of my stall. It's all good though I am sure we will start losing again soon :)

Its going to be 4 weeks tomorrow that I had my surgery,I have lost 21lbs since(21lbs in 4 weeks) , I guess that's good but I guess i was expecting it to magically fall off.I went for 5 days without a single pound being lost and assume im in the stall phase. I have signed up with La Fitness and use the pool 5 days a week,I walk 2 miles a day in pool and do some cardio workout as well,2 days a week I'm doing advanced Aqua Aerobics .my diet has changed to where I can eat soft solid foods finally,meaning I can eat chicken or fish,which if fine with me,I love both.I hit a stall last week for about 3 days and found out it was due to not having enough calories a day,I was only taking in 592.2 calories a day.I have adjusted with the solid foods to where I'm doing closer to 1200 calories a day now and weight is coming off again(Thank God). all my shorts and pants fall off me now and the ones I can wear looks like I'm wearing a tent or a skirt....lol....anyways all is going as planned , just not as fast as I would like.

I keep wondering about my calories. My friend has been successful on 500-600 calories, so that what I'm doing. Maybe I should eat a little more.

Vent away, that's okay too. This whole thing is VERY frustrating at times. :)

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?
