Dreaded 3 week stall



Recommended Posts

I have read several other posts about the 3 week stall. I had surgery 4/18/17. Lost 15 lbs my first week, 7 lbs my 2nd week...and one whole pound this week. I'm going back to work in the morning. When should the weight loss start increasing again?

It really varies by person. You body needs time to adjust to the changes. Just continue what you are doing. Also take your measurements. Sometimes your measurements go down when the scale does not. Try to not focus on the numbers and focus on how your feel and how your clothes are fitting. The scale will catch up again soon.

I'm getting weighed again on 6/5 and I'm nervous because last time I checked my weight was 5/4 at first post-op visit and I had already lost 41 pounds. It's one of those things we all go through and I know you'll be fine

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
