I've been at a stall since about a week after surgery and now it's been 12 days since the stall started and I still haven't lost anything. How long have your stalls lasted? I'm starting to lose hope here. Super depressed the scale won't move.

My first month out was slow. The doc said it happens because lack of energy and healing after surgery. Now I'm seven months out, lost 110 lbs and I just hit another stall. Stay focused and do not give up. Your only enemy is you. I've also seen a lot of people taking in like 1000 calories when I'm still only getting 700. Track all your foods, fluids, exercise. That will help you see your trends.

I actually have a lot of energy, I walk everyday, get all my fluids, but I'm lucky if I'm even able to get in 500 calories a day. I track EVERYRHING! It's just SUPER frustrating!

My first week I dropped 10 pounds. These past two weeks have been slow. I stalled for about a week and now at almost 4 weeks out I feel like it's picking back up. I'm down about 17 pounds.

I am 3.5 weeks out and once I transitioned from liquids to some solids I have noticed a stall. I am guessing it is because my metabolism has to catch up from being almost dormant the first two weeks.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
