Just hit my 3 week stall - like the scale did not budge the whole week. Because of this site, I'm not even trippin' If I haven't said it before, thanks!!! Luckily, I'm only weighing in on Thursdays. This too shall pass as they say....

I hit mine right on schedule too. Even knowing what to expect and knowing they are NBD, I was still completely anxious about it at first. Reading the board called called "Don't Sweat the Stall Stuff" (I think it's under General WLS) has been hugely helpful in keeping me sane.

I have been weighing myself every day. Just yesterday I finally forced myself to put the scale away, and I am enjoying today not knowing what the scale says. I'm going for a weekly Monday check-in myself.

I'm in mine right now. I've lost and gained the same three pounds all week. Blegh!

It's hard sometimes but I'm focusing on my clothes fitting nicer. The slight thinning if my face. If I weighed everyday, I'd be fit to be tied! That's an Southern expression for going crazy! :-)

I thought I'd never get out of my 5th month stall, but I final did. Losing right along. ????????????

I just hot the three week stall. I'm down 29 lbs and couldn't wait to say I am down 30! Well, that may not happen right away. But I am so relieved to know that a "3 week stall" is actually a thing that others go through too. If I didn't know about this ahead of time I'm sure I would be really hard on myself...and I don't want that kind of negativity when I'm working so hard at this!

After not moving (or going in the wrong direction!) for 8 days, I put the scale away on 2/4 and said I was only going to weigh myself once a week. I picked Monday as my weigh-day, and this morning I was down 4.5 pounds since 2/4. Apparently, it's true what they say about "a watched stall never breaks". Or maybe I just made that up, but you get the idea.

Yay! anaxila! I had been weighing on Thursdays. I jumped on just to see if it had moved past the stall. Down 2.5lbs. So I'll go back to my once a week till maintenance. Then I'll be everyday. Maybe. Can't decide. I've got a long while to decide. Lol

I'm in mine as well. I'm 3 weeks on Wednesday. I'm also still on liquids.

I know we're all different but to give you all some hope I'll share my "stall" experience. I didn't lose a pound for almost the whole month of January but once the stall ended, I dropped 8 pounds in a week. Weighing myself daily is not going to work for me anymore. It drives me absolutely nuts. I'll just have to hold out until my Sunday weigh-ins.

Have only lost 2 pounds in the last two weeks, which were week 3 and 4. Still not moving and I think I have become a victim of the scale! I am obsessed with it. I have lost 40 lbs total with before surgery loss, but oddly it isn't enough!

Thank goodness someone directed me to this site at our local support meeting last Thursday. Last week I saw my surgeon for my first post op checkup. I was down 30lbs sine December 30th. Since that appt I have not lost a pound. I'm at 3 weeks. I hadn't heard or been told about the 3 week stall! Thank Heaven for all of you. I'm not happy I've stalled but much more at peace knowing others have gone through this too.
