Please tell me this stall will pass ( I know it will, but I need some good vibes!)

So UGH. I'm 3 weeks post-surgery and have been the same weight for the past 10 days. I know this is normal. I totally get that. However, I'm starting to have some wavering faith. Any advice to keep it all positive would be so greatly appreciated! :) Thank you!!

But you have already lost quite a bit, since surgery, right? That's awesome! Your body just needed to take a break. And, while the scale may not be changing, your body is. That's the best part.

Keep the faith!

My advice,stay away from the scale for a few days, follow your program and then weigh yourself maybe on Monday.

I'll bet you'll see a surprise.

Good luck

The same thing happened to me. You're going to have many of the stalls so don't fret it. I am now 6 weeks out had at least 3 stalls. To get my metabolism up I increased my activity I did some light weight lifting I also did some cardio and drink a lot of green tea. It only took one session of cardio and one session of mild weight lifting on my arms to get me back on track. If you do nothing to change the style will eventually and if you'd like to speed up so that it will end sooner then change up your routine a little bit.

You're definitely going to stall. Your body has just been through a major transformation! Like another poster said, it needs a break. It has to get use to the idea of what you have done. I went through quite a few stalls, especially early on. I know its hard to stay faithful, but you will get through it! Good Luck!

Thanks everyone! I had my husband put the scale in our scary garage so I won't be tempted to grab it, and I'm just going to chill out and not weigh for awhile. :) Hopefully that will help, along with mixing up the routine! I appreciate the advice and support!

I agree I am 4 months post opt and stalls will continue just stay focus and eat healthy, drink your water and protein and exercise, your bode will begin to loose weight again and remember just because the scale is not moving does not mean you are not loosing inches good luck.
