Anyone experience a 10 week post op stall? I am on a stall now for 9 days. I do a bootcamp 2 days a week and have not changed a thing on my diet. Im very careful about what i eat. Just want to know if this is normal. 9 days seems long to not have lost. Should i go back to my liquid diet for a while?

I just went through one at 9 weeks. I had just begun a more aggressive cardio workout and suddenly found myself not losing for several weeks. I am very strict about my diet. After reaching out to my fabulous partners here on Bariatric Pal, they told me that my body was actually in starvation mode as I was not getting enough calories. I was only eating about 500 per day and working out 1 hour per day. I worked to add another 150 calories to my diet and honestly a little additional fat and my stall broke. I lost 2 lbs in a matter of 3 days and have been going strong since. I also got myself a Fitbit so that I have a better understanding of my actual activity burn along with exercise. I found I was actually burning most of what I was taking in. I track my diet and exercise on fitness pal and the Fitbit communicates with that tool. Now of course I hurt my rotator cuff exercising (I have psoriatic arthritis) and am down for the count. Hoping it down set me back too far.

Good luck on your stall. I know it is really frustrating!

Thank you. I do fitness pal everyday so i know my protein, fat, calorie and carb intakes. I try not to go over 800 a day as my nutritionist said, but when i work out i add a tad extra in an extra protein shake. 9 days seems extreme for a stall- but thank you. I will try to modify my calories when i lose extra calories. Going to the gym today????! I am not the person who expects the weight off instantly, but i usually went 5 days- no loss, then boom- 3-5 lost. I was just getting worried at the 9 day stretch.

Good luck, see if it helps. From everything I have read and heard it makes sense.

For sure. Ill try to eat @ 950 calories today after my 1 hour cardio. Thanks again!

Quit weighing yourself daily! lol

Seriously though, I only weigh myself about once a month or so. This way I don't stress out if I don't lose anything in a few days. I think everyone has stalls.

I started working out about 5 days a week and had to increase my calories a bit - I eat about 700-900 and Protein to about 110 grams a day on workout days. This has really helped
