Looooong stall - Almost two months out

[LouLouM 70]

Hello everyone. On Tuesday, it will be 8 weeks since I had gastric sleeve surgery. I am having a long stall. It's been over two weeks where I keep gaining and losing the same 2 lbs. Is it normal to stall this long?

Thank you.

yes. Stalls usually last 1-3 weeks

I've got the one sure-fire way to avoid stalls:

Get off the scale. scales are crazy-makers. You know the saying that a watched pot never boils? Well, a watched scale never moves.

Trust your plan and the weight will come off.

Good luck,

Tek

Sigh. As usual, everyone here is correct. The stall ended after three weeks. Just posting the update for other people who search stories about stalls.

Yes, absolutely stalls can last anywhere from 1 week to a month or even longer. They're frustrating, but just keep doing the right things and this too shall pass.

Oh my gosh. I just posted AGAIN about another 3 week stall! 🤪 I did a search and found my own post. Anyway, hearing I am again, in another 3 week stall.
