I dont know weeks but my surgery was 4th July, you have done amazingly, gain can be many things. Stalls happen regularly for us all. :)

What are you eating and are you hitting Water goals?

It might mean nothing - just your body adjusting or retaining Water. But it would be useful to see if there was anything that changed in your diet or exercise routine.

I track food and a few times I have identified things that stall me. One of which was a Protein Powder switch.

Are you weighing yourself daily? My weight bounces around a lot so I only weigh weekly now. I'm almost 10 months out and I've been stalled for a month. I thought I lost 4 pounds but it turns out my scale was broken and it ended up dying. Stalls happen and they are frustrating but keep at the plan and get your fluids.

I’m stalled. I’ve been losing steady since before surgery which was 9/14. I’ve been stuck at 201!! I’m DYING TO SEE IT GO BELOW 200! And it won’t! Despite working out daily I’ve been here for 2 weeks. If I️ was t working out I️ would just say “well I’ll get to the gym!” But it’s not happening! I️ don’t eat much, guess none of us do, it’s annoying!

I'm 10 days from being 8mo. Post op and I was stalled at 155-158 for almost a month. I decided to try IF (intermittent fasting) for a week and it actually worked. I'm down to 152-153... My original GW was 160 so either way I made it and I'm so THANKFUL.....

Stalls /gains are a normal part of the flow. Evaluate your food and liquid intake as well as your activity. If nothing strikes you as the cause, consult your team (doctor, nutritionist, trainer). Oddly enough, many of my stalls were from not eating enough and/or not keeping hydrated. I also gain at least 2lbs right around the start of my cycle.

I am right there with you. Im basically in a stall. If I’m lucky I lose 1 lb a week but I do heavy workouts 5-7 days a week so I do know I’m gaining muscle and replacing the fact. However, I’m around 206 and dying to be under 200! My first goal weight is 180 but right now under 200 would make me happy. BMI is 32. I need it at or under 30 to get a hernia repair. Come on weight, go away!!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
