Stalled so early!

[Amc203 9]

I started at 294 after pre op diet I went down to 284. 3 weeks post op 259. My weight is the same from last week. I haven’t been able to really consume much. I’m getting about 50 grams of Protein. Anyone want to share there stats ? Is this normal ?

The third-week stall is absolutely infamous. Just be patient. You're not doing anything wrong. It is discouraging, but totally normal.

Are you getting all your fluids? That's really important, more important than the Protein at this point.

I stalled almost immediately after surgery, and stall regularly! It’s all good :) I lose 3-5lbs, then stalk for 5-6 days, then drop another 2-3lbs, then stall for like 8-10 days and repeat. It’s my routine that my body just likes to follow!

I’ve been at 60+ grams since about day 4 so I’m weird. I have an Iron stomach.

Maybe I’m going through the same thing! I have to stop weighing myself but it’s soooo hard!

I feel like its worked out well for me! My energy levels have remained really constant. I know some people who drop significantly can feel more fatigue (not a definite, just sometimes!) For me, I have a ton of energy and feel super upbeat. It also helped me keep a realistic head on things. I am losing slower so I feel like I have to be more proactive about it instead of just letting the surgery do all the work.

I agree!! I don’t want to lose to fast. I just am nervous I won’t lose at all

Just keep on doing what you were doing, make sure you are getting enough Water and getting some exercise in (even if it is only walking) the weight will come off!

I am going through a stall also stuck at 245. Today I'm changing my exercise routine and cutting down on carbs, working on getting enough sleep, adding meditation and writing down my foods again because I stopped doing that. I hope this helps me get back to losing and reach my goal.
