I was sleeved on July 20 .... Lost 20 lb in first three weeks

However , I have not lost even 1 lb in past week or so ?

What is going on ??? I did have a lower bro than most who have the procedure but I don't understand ??? The scale isn't moving ?

I've done well with recovery and am on regular foods now

I'm scared now that I made bad decision and not going to lose weight

You are in a stall and it very normal. Your body needs time to make adjustments. This will pass. There are many, many posts on here about this. I am 2 mths out and just finished my 2nd one that lasted two weeks. You will probably lose inches during this time.

What I have learned from this procedure is that you MUST exercise to lose weight. If you are not exercising you are just going to maintain or gain.

Stalling for a couple of weeks starting at three weeks post-op is completely normal. You can use the search function on this site to look for "three week stall" or even just Google "three week stall vsg" or "week three stall weight loss surgery" or anything like that and see that you are far from alone! Just keep following your program and stay off the scale for a while if it will stress you out. Good luck!

Ok thank you ... I hope it gets better soon after I spent all this money !

Embrace the Stall

I stalled from week 4-7 and finally dropped weight today! YAY!!!!!!! You will break that stall 100%

I'm so glad to be reading this. I too have been at a stall for over a week now and hate it... But I read suggestions about measuring oneself and it turns out that I've lost an inch off my waist and half inches off my hips and chest, so it's moving. I just wish the scale would go down already.

HW 341 lbs

07/19/16 - 298 lbs

08/09/16 DOS - 286 lbs

CW 269 lbs

I think the stall comes from going from all liquids to some solids. Another shock to the system.

Calories in vs calories out . Exercise boots your metabolism and burns calories. It's time to pick up the pace and do more... Best wishes xox
