How long do stalls usually last!

Freaking out here. I had surgery 3/3 I went from 268 to 215.8. I’ve been at 215.8 for almost three weeks now. I only eat healthy and I walk everyday( I have not been cleared to do anything else yet). I’m getting frustrated because the scale won’t move. It would be nice to see wonderland.

typically 1-3 weeks, so you're near the end of it

Omg stalls are the worst!! I’ve had about three since surgery and I now know it’s part of the process and once you start loosing you really lose. I made my husband hide the scale and I only weigh myself once a week. I have lost 50 lbs so far so it is working!

So the stall out will last 3 weeks then a drop will happen? Because I have not dropped since my first post op one week after surgery and I’m going to be 6 weeks post op on Tuesday.

I too refuse to step on scale for 2 weeks and to just live in the moment and not stress, as we know, stress will prevent weight loss too

Ha. Sounds like something I would do asking hubby to hide the scale. Lol

I had surgery on 3/2. I have went from 308 to 255. I have been on a 3 week stall. I even went and saw the nutritionist just to make sure I am on track. "Just be patient" they say.

Hi So, two weeks postop, at my two week postop appointment I have completely stalled. I just hit five weeks today. I am not sure what I’m doing wrong I do not consume that many calories.I haven’t been able to walk the last week and a half because I live in Washington state and it’s been 110 to 115 all day long and even in the night time it’s still almost 100, just way too hot.. I’m starting to feel really hopeless. I’m not sure what to do, so I understand how you’re feeling.
