  • Do nothing, it will pass and it will happen again. Just keep following your plan and chugging along and you will get past it.

  • UGH I am in a stall, too! I am so bummed because I finally got back into the 160s, for the first time since 2016...then nothing lost in two weeks. But I am trying to stay optimistic and sticking to t

My first stall happened at 2 weeks post op. It lasted for 2.5 weeks. Finally, about 4 days ago, the scale started to move again. But, my ring started falling off and I was starting to see the weight loss in my face and feel it in my clothes. So, even though the scale wasn't moving, I was losing inches.
Stay the course. Be patient. If you're making yourself crazy, stay off the scale.
Will do Thank you

Oh, yeah, everyone experiences them. Just look at them as your body taking a break. It’s been going through a lot & just like when our lives get a bit too much & stressful, your body is just pulling the covers over its head & saying nope, can’t deal with anything else for a while. Don’t stress it out more by making changes to your diet & activity levels. Stick to your plan as others have advised & the scale will start to move again.
Great way to look at it Thanks

stalls happen!!! i am 27 days out and in a stall …. but i have to be burning fat at less than 1000 calories a day

all you can do is make healthy choices; stick with your program; make sure you are not eating too much or to little and trust your body is changing even if the scale isn’t … take some measurements and pics and compare for changes that the scale doesn’t show

I'm at a stall too. A pretty frustrating one. It started 2 weeks after surgery and has lasted 3 weeks! I'm walking, lifting small weights, staying below 1200 calories, eating well......and I want this stall to be over!
