I haven't lost anything in over a week! I can't figure out why I'm not dropping weight! What's wrong with me! I was sleeved on June 2nd and lost about 15 the first week and a half. Now I'm completely stopped! Advice needed!

O....I know this feeling. I was sleeved the same day and lost 26 lbs after surgery. Now it has been a long painful week without any loss...from what I have read online this is semi-normal. . Not what I wanted to hear!

I am with you all. I am a June 2 sleeve and have really not lost for a week. I have looked over my calories which are around 700 and I am walking 2.5 to 3 miles per day. Very frustrating.

My calories are around the same....but im not walking that much! I still have some left sided pain. Feels like muscular pain near incisions. I'm just too sore to really do too much.

It does make me feel better to hear that I am not alone! I have been trying to exercise too! It was falling off like crazy in the beginning and to have it come to a complete stand still is beyond frustrating.

Hi everyone!

Relax, you guys are hitting the dreaded 3 week stall! Most people have gone through it.. Just keep doing what you are doing and the scale will start moving again! No worries;) congrats on the weight loss so far!

Same here. June 3 sleeve and I have stalled for the last week.

I had my post-op appointment on June 20th and my Doc said to shoot for 1,000 - 1,200 calories a day and that the weight would melt off. Well, it is not working yet. Intellectually, I know it is just my body slipping into starvation mode. At 1,000 to 1,200 there is no way I will not lose weight long term. However, it is frustrating nonetheless. I am tempted to go back to two shakes a day like right after surgery when I was still losing, although I know this would be the wrong answer.

Patience sucks. I want to be thin now.

I completely agree!! Patience sucks! I am wanting instant results too!!

SLEEVED JUNE 10TH AND SO FAR HAVE LOST A TOTAL OF 11 LBS. SO VERY FRUSTATEDTODAY I WENT BACK ON Clear liquids TODAY.

It's the "3 week stall". We promise it passes. It's very, very frustrating but it will pass. Stick to the program.

I am glad to hear it's normal AND it passes! I'm excited to eat more variety without worrying about gaining!

Totally normal!! Dreaded 3rd week stall.. So frustrating.. I too promise it will pass..

Thanks!!!

I'm 7 months post-op. The stalls will come and go all the time, please don't worry about them, stay on track and focused on your meal plans, plenty of Water, all Proteins, Vitamins and exercise.

Don't get discouraged, your body is still adjusting to the major surgery and trying to figure out how to handle your food intake!!

If you stick to it, you Weill succeed!! But most definitely expect stalls to be part of your new life style!!

I'm still a slow loser but my experience is losing inches more than pounds, for someone that's dealing with injuries and very little activity and exercise, my wls continues to be successful. I've gotten used to the stall, you will too!

Stay positive and hydrated! : )

I'm right there with you guys! I was sleeved June 3rd. I lost 17 pounds and nothing for over a week now. If fact I've started retaining fluids and it's cause about a four pound gain. WTH???
