Just curious, from everyone's personal experience, how long does the famous 3rd week stall last?

I am also 3 weeks post-op and am experiencing a stall. You are not alone! My scale hasn't moved this week.

Lasted an entire week for me. Stalled again around 8 weeks.

I'm in the 3rd week stall too. Also, no scale movement this week either...

Same here.

Me too! This really, really sucks!

Really.....

really.....sucks.

I just say my body is on hold. My longest hold was 4 days so far but there have been a couple of 3 days too. I am averaging 1 pound lost every 2 days since surgery (17 pounds since surgery). When the hold is over the weight loss catches up. As long as you are not eating crazy amounts of food your body will have no choice but to release the weight. When it is ready of course.

Mine lasted 3 weeks. It was tough but the scale has started moving Again!!:-)

Give it time... Just keep doing what you are supposed to be doing... and the scale will have no choice but to move... my 3week stall lasted about 10 days... then another stall about 6 /7 weeks out... but your body will catch up... just don't watch the scale. take pride in the non scale victories - you maybe losing inches and not even realize it

(i found if i do 3 days of Protein shakes, it helps kick start the weight loss train... but at 3 weeks out, you are prob tired of them)
