UGH!!! I finally hit a stall



Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

Well I have been losing pretty well now. I lost a lot of weight. I was sleeved on October 29,2010 and I have lost about 100lbs so far. Now I am stuck around 300lbs. I dont know what is going on. I am 5'11" and I have a large frame. My dr wants me at 150-160 lbs but I will be happy with 185-200 lbs. Of course I am on solids and I can eat more calories. I eat Breakfast, lunch and dinner. with maybe 2 Snacks. I try to get down some form of Protein. I exercise at least 1 time a day either riding my exercise bike for 30 mins or walking 3 miles (with my 6month old lab puppy). I cant get a budge. And this has been for about a month. I dont have a scale cause I dont want to be constantly weighing myself, I use the scale at my local doctors office. They let me come in and weigh myself every week. I just need advice on what to do to break this stall. I know if I can break it, the next 100 lbs will melt off. So anyone have any advice, please HELP!!!

I'm in the same boat girl, stuck at 285 for a week now. I briefly flirted with 284 but went up a pound the next day.

Examine your diet make sure your not slipping something in that is increasing your caloric intake. If everything looks OK then just give it more time. It will come off.

Some say that a slight increase in carbs might get it moving again. I'm not sure about this.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
