LCS 21 Posted August 26, 2011 Hi There, I was sleeved on April 19th of this year. At the 3 week mark, I hit a plateau, and lost nothing. It lasted almost 3 weeks. I then began losing again, until the 3 month mark. For the entire third month, I lost almost nothing. As soon as I entered my 4th month, I started losing again. I'm beginning to fear the number 3. Hopefully, I won't have to worry again until year 3! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nuffbrownin 0 Posted August 30, 2011 Wow! Thank you very much for this post. I too hit a plateau at week 3 and have now gone 3 weeks without weight loss. Were you able to figure out why this happened to you? I don't eat much so I thought maybe my metabolism was slowing down. At least I know that this will pass.

LilMissDiva Irene 3,282 Posted August 30, 2011 That's so funny you mention fearing the 3rd year. I heard that's the year most sleevers will gain back any weight, statistically. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
300PoundsDown 101 Posted August 30, 2011 At 3 weeks I also hit a plateau which also lasted for almost 3 weeks. Weird! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh no, I've actually not heard of anyone gaining all their weight back. I'm not saying it isn't possible to either, just haven't ever heard of it. From what I've heard its usually around 10% back. So for me, I'd probably gain back around 15 Lbs or so... but I also think it's controllable too. I've just gone through way too much to let any weight creep back up on me. I happen to think its folks who become too complacent, aren't checking their weight or really just ignoring the gain. That's how I gained up to over 300 Lbs and really I don't see that happening for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My doctor told me that our bodies are shifting around the weight, and not to worry. (easy for him to say, he's skinny) He said this is when we lose the inches.
