I am three weeks out and I have heard that some people have a stall during this time. I am experiencing this now. How long does it last? And is there anything I can do to jump start the process? I am only taking in about 400-500 calories a day. I can't do much exercise because I ripped a stitch a few days ago on my left side which is very painful and doc says I need to take it easy for the next couple weeks and heal. Any information is helpful. Thanks!

I feel you! Same thing happened to me at this stage! Slow and steady wins the race! It will come off and the scale will move. Keep on track and it will move again soon!

Stay off the scale! I didn't have a three weeks stall because I hardly ever stepped on the scale. I guarantee my weight loss journey was a hell of a lot more fun because of it!

Eat Protein, drink Water, take Vitamins. That all you need to do right now.

I agree with @@Kindle - stay off the scale! It's 3 weeks in. Relax a bit. I didn't notice a 3 week stall either. In the beginning I only weighed myself when I went to the doctor's. I had a 2 week f/u and didn't seeing him again until my 6 week f/u. I showed a loss both times. Instead I focused on eating/drinking enough Protein, getting in enough Water and walking/exercise. If you follow the program, the loss will happen. Just make sure to hit those protein and Fluid levels.

DH experienced this and I told him to stop weighing himself daily because he was becoming frustrated. Instead he altered what he ate and things picked up again. Plus if you are doing measurements, you may still see a decrease there even if the scale doesn't reflect one.

I agree with all the above especially the Vitamins. If you don't have enough vitamins in you your body will stall also weighing once a week will lift your mood. Don't judge your body by a scale but by your clothes loosing up and your energy increasing. I hope you did this to be a healthy version of you so rejoice in all the little changes.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
