Mine is still going strong. This week, I finally put the scale away and have not been weighing myself everyday as I foolishly had been doing. I really expected to see some sort of drop this morning, but nothing. I'm honestly devastated. I'm walking everyday, keeping calories around 800 or less, drinking water. I started out with a quick 17 pound drop after being sleeved on 8/3 (SW 275, CW 252). I know the 3-week stall is real--how long did it last for you until you started dropping? I'm losing my mind here.

Do you think it's related to my age? I'm 39.

I am on Day 7. ?

2 weeks now [emoji36]

I doubt it. Seems like it happens to everyone.

My first stall was one week post-op and lasted 10 days. Just had a second stall that lasted 7 days. I lost quite a few inches during each stall. I also noticed that both stalls happened right around my time of the month. So I'm just going to expect these once a month. ?

I'm not good at tracking my food so I'm trying to start that again too, especially since I've been released to eat whole food again.

This journey is hard on our bodies, we were not designed to loose weight like this. Be patient and respect the need your body has to catch up and reset.

Mine has been happening since August 20th

Mine started at 3 weeks and then lasted 3 weeks. It was horrible. Eating under 800 calories and getting steps in and having scale not move for 21 days was rough. But last week it stopped and I dropped 7 lbs in a few days. They do end!

I've been the same weight since week 4, now at week 8. Beyond frustrated.

Mine finally broke on Friday.

I had 2 stalls...One at 3 weeks, and one at 6 weeks. Each time, I slowly increased my calorie count, and the stall broke. I am at 850-1,000 calories now and losing about 2-3 pounds per week on average. Stalls suck, I know. However, this is a chance for your body to catch up with all of the physical and hormonal changes you have gone through.

Keep doing what you are doing and the stall will eventually break. In the meantime, you should still be losing inches. Also, stay off of the scale if it helps. That evil thing has caused me to binge on many occasions pre-surgery. Two or three weeks of staying the same weight or gaining weight can reek havoc on your mindset.

Stay strong my friends.
