Stall

How long does the 3rd week stall last? I want to start losing weight...I feel so discouraged ugh. I've lost about 20lbs so far but I really want to start losing again or I feel like I'm suffering for no reason ????

Can someone tell me how to get off the stall quicker?

It is different for everyone. I stalled for 2 weeks and even gained 2 pounds but I relost it. I am now a little over 5 weeks post op and have lost 20 pounds post op.

Weeks 5 and 6 I lost 2 1/2lbs. But after the stall I lost 5lbs. It's been 2 months and I've lost 38lbs. Trust me, stalls will happen, it's ok. Don't get discouraged. ❤️

I have had two minor stalls since June 10th, when I see a stall I just go back to basics for 2 or 3 days, and continue my activity level, protein for breakfast, light lunch, and light protein dinner and lots of fluids, plus 3 days a week at the gym, 388lbs in January, on June 10th surgery date was at 346lbs, then last Monday @ 296lbs, so 92lbs lost since January........ So approximately

11.5lbs per month, so 227lbs by February 2016 then 29lbs more to goal weight if I can keep up this pattern, I think it's reasonable for me, I just don't stop because of stalls, I keep looking ahead and keeping my mind on the goal!!!!?

I'm there with ya. I didn't lose weight for about 11 days but the last couple of days, the scale has gone down a little. Very little, but it's going down. I'm trying to hang in there but it is frustrating for sure.
