I had RNY surgery on Nov 12 2015. I have lost 26lbs since then. I seem to be in a stall for about the last 2-3 weeks. My question is, is it normal for a stall to last this long. I'm getting my fluids in drink 2 Protein drinks a day and being careful of what I eat. Following my Doctors instructions. I can't walk for exercise because of a knee injury. I am not gaining any weight, I just seem to be maintaining my weight. Anyone have any suggestions about if this is just a long stall or if something else is going on. Thanks

My "three-week stall" lasted two weeks. There's a woman on another forum I'm on who had one last 3.5 weeks - so yes, it can happen. As long as you're following your program, the stall will break soon...

I stall every once in a while. It seems like it is forever, and I have never counted the days, but I can see it being two or three weeks. Like catwoman said, it will break soon.

Ive been on a stall since nov 29th, I been stuck on 249.4 , I don't gain but the scale doesn't move , so believe me , I completely understand your frustration

Stalls are a natural part of the weight loss process. The only thing predictable is that your first one usually occurs about three weeks after surgery.

Just follow your program and make sure you are getting in all of your Protein, fluids, and Vitamins.

Consider trying some exercise that you can do with your injury. Search chair exercises. Pre-op I couldn't get around very well so I got an exercise peddler and some resistance bands and Dumbbells that I used while watching tv. Just see if you can find a way to move.

Embrace the Stall!

Can you get in the pool? It's a great way to exercise that is easy on the joints.
