My weight loss has stalled for the last week and a half. I am 12 weeks post op from sleeve. Is this normal and has anyone else had the same issue? If so, any suggestions how to kick start it.

Almost EVERYONE has a major stall at three months. I'm two months out and already had bunches of mini-stalls so I am not looking forward to a major one at three months. From what I've read here, stick with your plan and it WILL resolve itself. Hopefully some of the veterans will post and give you some pointers!

Absolutely normal. Nearly EVERYONE gets the dreaded 4 week stall, so you got lucky and didn't get it until 12 weeks. It's nothing you're doing wrong. It's just your body needing time to adjust. Stay with the program and you'll be fine.

Stalls are normal and they’ll happen lol along your journey. They can last for a week, two, three or more. shake things up a bit. Some find intermittent fasting will break it, others increase their intake.

Think of them as your body just trying to catch up with your weight loss & new eating & activity habits. It’s just your body wanting breathing space.

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

      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?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
