Long weight loss stalls



Recommended Posts

I am 60 days post op. I have lost 30 lbs overall which is great but i have been stalled for 2 weeks twice. Why these long stalls so early on? I am basically still on liquids since i have had to have 3 dilations. I am getting between 60 and 80 oz of liquid a day and between 60 and 90 grams of Protein. I have even added walking a few times a week. Any ideas to help me lose faster?

I dont have any advice. But I am in the exact same boat. I'm 65 days post op and I haven't lost anything in 2 weeks. In fact, I've gained 2 pounds. It's very discouraging

The only thing i can hope for is we are just taking longer to adjust and see real weight loss.

:) I have, I normally walk every other day. although as far as exercising goes I am still waiting to be released to be able to do that I had a Hiatal Hernia fixed, Scar tissue repair from the prior lap-band and a Live biopsy which I found out I was stage 1 of Fatty liver disease as well.

I had a hernia also. Probably time to add in exercise for 30 minutes such as elliptical or cycling 5 - 7 days a week. Walking is good but at 3 months post op it probably should be for 45 to 1 hour every day. Exercising will help your metabolism so a year out you'll be burning lotsa calories with the muscle you've gained.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
