When did you stop loosing weight?



Recommended Posts

I’m 5 months out and I’ve stalled out (it’s been about 2.5 weeks with no loss). Is this it? Can I hope to loose more or am I done? When did you stop loosing after gastric sleeve.

You'll keep losing for 12-18 months. It's just a stall. Hang in there and stick with the program.

I had my surgery 2 days before you. I thought I might just be done losing also, until I went extreme with Protein and upped my calories to 1100 and the scale moved!

I'm an RNY patient, but I finally stopped losing at around 18 or 20 months out (can't remember - it's been awhile). It does slow down quite a bit after the six-month mark, though (and even more after the one-year mark) - and stalls (at least for me) became more frequent and lasted longer. There were several times I thought "this is it", but then the weight loss would start up again...

I stalled at month 6 and continued to stall for 3 months until I tried Intermittent Fasting. It helped get the scale moving again!

Lost most weight in first 9 months...lost a little more weight, but ALOT of inches after started regular exercise! Do 1 hr of fast power walking and 1 hr of strength training every other day. Have done this for a year and dropped 2 more dress sizes.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
