No suggestions.....but a definite "what you need to do"....bit of advice...

Just keep doing what you're doing.....it's only a routine stall and you will resume losing.........and stalling and losing......got the idea..... completely normal. ;)

Yes, the stall around this time is very common...some call it 'your body stabilizing'...keep doing your thing, and you'll definitely work through it and start losing again!!

Yep, it's your first stall. Don't fret it. I'm in my second stall after almost 5 months. This one has lasted a long time, but I've already lost almost 75 pounds. I hit my first stall right on schedule...the dreaded 3 week stall.

Stalls will happen over and over. You just have to go with the flow and keep doing the good stuff...exercising, eating healthy, feeling positive.

Just got out of a 2 week stall. VERY frustrating, but it happens to 99% of us, so you're perfectly normal! Stop weighing yourself and just keep doing what you are doing and it will work itself out.

And since no one else has mentioned it, if you took measurements, there is a good chance that you'd see a difference there instead of weight on the scale since your body can be losing inches even if the scale isn't moving. But even if it's not, don't worry - this is all temporary!

I was going to point out how many stalls I've had already and how meaningless they are but it seems everyone beat me to it... :-)

One of my friends good friends said she was at a stall for 6 months. Om goodness isn't that to long? I've noticed since my last post I'm moving slow but I'm still dropping oz. At least it's something. Ooo and inches. Thanks ya'll for helping me. I thought I was doing something wrong. Sometimes I think my body's just going crazy. Hahaha.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
