Stall in loss?

My surgery was 11/3/15. I have lost 40lbs, but the last 2 weeks the scale has not moved for me. Anyone else experience a stall only 2 months out?

    Stalls ate a normal, natural, and necessary part of the weight loss process. Embrace the Stall! http://BariatricPal.com/index.php?/topic/351046-Embrace-the-Stall

    Congratulations on your 80 pound loss. Without knowing what you are doing it is hard to give you tips. If you aren't happy with where you are why not make an appointment with your NUT to talk abou

I experienced one two *weeks* out! They do happen once in awhile to pretty much everyone. I think your body has to stop and recalibrate every once in awhile. Just stick to the plan and you should start dropping again.

It is common to encounter stalls after gastric bypass surgery.

Thanks for sharing this, I didn't realize there were little stalls occasionally but iot makes sense. My first thought is to really become a walker and a healthy eater (even though I've never eaten very heqalthily for long) Mine is Feb 10th, I can't believe it's happening, I'm so tired of being a big heavy guy who is exhausted by the least amount of physical exertion

I think most of us don't realize how normal stalls are because pre-op, a stall was when we usually gave up and quit whatever diet we were on at the time -- hence the yo-yo dieting.

Now, I know that if I just keep doing what I am supposed to do, I will lose weight.

I am 13 months out and have been in a stall for two months. I was wondering if anyone has a few tips to move this along. Two months seems like a long stall.

I have lost 80 lbs since surgery and 12 before the surgery. I feel great but am ready to take off the next 40 lbs.

my surgeon said going back to the pre-op diet (Protein shakes plus clear liquids) for a couple of days will sometimes get things going again. Haven't tried it since my only stall thus far has been the "three week stall". Since I'm over seven months out, he probably figured I was long overdue for one...
