I'm now 3 months out and I have been stalled again for 3 weeks. I've lost 42 pounds, but I'm feeling like I won't lose anymore weight. I'm meeting my Water goals, Protein, and exercise goals. I still keep thinking I should've gotten the RNY.

i hope I can lose another 30 pounds by my 6 month appointment in the next few months. I have pcos and I think that's the culprit. I feel lighter but no more weightless. Maybe I should go to therapy or something. Smh

I went through a period like this a couple months ago at almost the same interval and asked the exact same question (you can find the thread here if you search). Fortunately, it was just a stall, and the weight loss picked back up after I made a couple of small tweaks to my routine.

Granted I'm losing slower than I used to, but it's still going. Knock on wood and praise the Lord!

I hope your stall is short and you handle it (emotionally) well.

Thank you for your responses. I will keep the faith and press on. I'm also going to join my local support group.

Stalls happen.

Keep working the program, keep the faith. This is a long haul thing, and while it is not at all easy - it is so worth it!

Stalls are part of the process no matter what surgery you have, just stay the course and stick with your Protein and fluid goals and it will pass. It's the body's way of processing the weight loss.

I was stalled for almost 2 months at 10-12 months post op but I went down a clothing size during that time so just because the scale isn't moving, doesn't mean you are not losing weight, you could be losing inches which my surgeon said still counts as fat loss.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
