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 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! 😞
