I know it's normal, but I'm still freaking out (Stall?)

[apple-saucy 17]

I know from reading the board that it's normal, Some people stall after 1 week some people stall after 3 weeks. It's NORMAL. So why am I freaking out that the scale hasn't moved in over a week (2wks out now)? I keep wondering if I'm doing something wrong, but really I'm topping out at 800 calories per day on average, so even if I was eating nothing but junk (which I'm not) one would think that the scale would move down simply from the lack of calories.

I'm drinking at minimum 64oz of Water per day usually it's closer to 70oz Like I said I'm averaging 800 calories per day, 60-70 grams of Protein 40-50 carbs 20-40 grams of fat. Is there anything else I should be doing?

I just broke my stall by only eating Protein for 3 days - deli meat, chicken and tuna salad with fat free mayo (only a teaspoon or so), eggs. Low fat, low carb meals. You might want to give it a try.

I had the exact same thing. Mine broke without me doing anything special--just suddenly dropped 4 pounds over the weekend after a week of staying the same. I am nowhere near you on calorie intake, though--my sleeve doesn't like a lot of stuff yet, so I'm having to take it really slow and easy.

Hang in there! Sounds like you're doing all the right things. Are you walking? Getting moving sometimes makes the difference.

Cheers!

I've been in denial about my stall It started just after the 3 week mark and haven't lost but 1 pound in almost 3 weeks......I have lost inches and am trying to hold on to that. I guess I will head over to the tracker thing and log food for a week or so and see if that helps.

It is normal and, really, only time will change it. I don't weigh very often, so I am not sure exactly when and how long my stall was. I just didn't weigh myself week 3-5. And, in that time only lost one pound. Since then I have bounced back to losing 1 to 2 pounds a week.

Seriously. it's normal. You'd be better off not weighing for 10 days and see what happens.

I know it's hard, but you'll feel better.

Are you guys outta your stall yet? I'm at week 3 and haven't lost a pound since Monday. I am totally prepared for the 3 week stall everyone goes through but I'm on full liquids and am having a lot of issues getting anything think down. I'm able to get blended creamed Soup, blended greek yogurt, and nectar Protein Water... but that's seriously it! I'm not even close to getting 64oz of fluids in, and maybe get 60g of Protein in a day.... I'm so sad! I was so excited to drink my yummy chocolate Protein shakes, but NOPE, they dont go down!

So, I was just wondering if ya'll were able to break your stall and at which week did it break? For me, it's not like I can up my calorie intake, or increase protein, etc. I have come to accept the fact that it's gonna take me a while longer to move through the stages. But any advice would be appreciated!!
