How long did your 3 week post op stall last?

I was all prepared for the stall I would encounter in my 3rd week post op as I've read extensively about it on here. What I haven't seen, is how long did it last before you started losing again? Right now I've been stalled for 5 days.

TBH, I stalled for the first 3-4 weeks post op. I lost the Water weight after surgery, then...waiting...waiting...waiting...The scale didn't budge for about 3 weeks, I thought my sleeve was "broken", my therapist and my fiancee were trying to get me to chill out & stop weighing myself, so I did. I did not step on a scale from around week 2-3 to week 5, and that's when I noticed I had a big loss. So, I stalled for almost 3 weeks but that seems so far away and in the past now, even though it was less than 4 months ago. I've had 2 more stalls since then...including this week. Can't seem to break into Onederland for the life of me...practicing patience. Good luck on your journey!

I weighed for the first time four weeks after surgery, then not again until 8 weeks, then not again until 12 weeks. So if I was having any stalls during that time, I was completely unaware of them or how long they might be lasting. My unasked-for advice is to stay off the scale for the next 2-3 weeks before you drive yourself nuts ;)

Mine's still going. lol.

I never had a stall, I would lose at least 1-4 pound a week after surgery. Im 6 months out.

A little over two and a half weeks.
