I was sleeved April 7th and dropped 23 lbs VERY fast. Then nothing. I kept reading about the three week stall and just tried to believe that it would start up again, but I was getting very discouraged. I was weighing everyday and would be anywhere from 249 to 251. This past weekend I went out of town so I couldn't weigh (and didn't need to). I just focused on protein and fluids and did A LOT of walking. I weighed this morning - 242! Hallelujah!!!

Take that scale out back and hit it with a sledge hammer...This is not about numbers hun. This is about getting healthy and changing the way you see food...numbers can really play with your head as you well know. Don't forget we are women and we go up and down like yo yo's .So if you are following numbers you will get discouraged....

I know I am different from most people on here. I am 17 months out and never experienced a stall. Why? Because I have only weighed myself maybe 5 or 6 times. Most of the time it has been at my doctors office... I have faith in what I am doing and follow the program. And it works for me.....I know I've lost by my clothes the way I feel. Things like that....

I don't know why I chose to do it this way. Probably when I get to maintenance I will weigh once a week...But for now...Nope I love the adventure more then the numbers...

This is so well said I'm scheduled for vsg May 9th and I want nothing to do with scales, I will go off of how my clothes fit, I read about too many people getting depressed over numbers on the scale even after they've acknowledged that their clothes fit looser, I don't want to be in this boat,if I stall I don't need to know about it if I know that I'm doing the right things.

Congratulations!! I was sleeved a day after you and lost 22 pounds and then hit a stall. I am at day 13 of this stupid stall!! Kudos to you; I hope my stall dies and never comes back!!

Thank you! Hang in there; it's hard to believe it will end but it will!! And yes, hopefully never come back!

Congratulations Jen. That is just wonderful. Keep up that positive attitude.

Its been torture but I have decided to only weight on Fridays !

I had been in a stall for the last 2 weeks, but now I am going to bust threw it, I am hitting the gym and exercising harder. Congrats on your success and thanks for inspiring me to keep going!

Its been torture but I have decided to only weight on Fridays !
