Oh Tracey, the much-dreaded 3-week stall is just a week late for you. Search this site for "three-week stall" and you will feel so much better--we all have it in one way, form, or fashion. It will pass. Just keep doing what you're supposed to do and hang in there. The time AFTER the stall breaks is some of the fastest loss you'll experience, so fun times are ahead!

However long did it take to put all that weight on? I will take time to lose the weight even with this wonderful tool we've been given. We all move at different rates in loosing weight. Some drop it right away, some drop it over time. Which is the healthier way, who knows. It will come off, stop weighing yourself and enjoy the ride. Eat healthy, which means Protein shakes, Protein, veggies, Jello, pudding SF, and drink lots of fluids. ;)

How many of you guys agree with this?

Yep you have hit the infamous stall.....Mine lasted for 2 1/2 weeks and then the scale started to move again. I increased my Protein and made sure that I was getting all of my fluids which is always important. It will move again.

Dont worry. Stalls are very common in this journey. I'm 6 weeks post op and havent lost weight for almost a week now. Same thing happened to me on the 3rd week too, but in the mid of 4th week I lost about 4.5 pounds so I wouldnt be bothered. :)

Your sleeve will never go wrong. It just takes time to adjust.

hi tracy, yup i gained my 90+ overnight a few years ago, so i'll lose it all of a sudden one night. te he te he - unfortunately that is a pipe dream - obviously neither gaining or losing will happen over night - but we'll get there!! stalls will happen...

best

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
