anniew 13 Posted May 6, 2012 Hi everyone. I'm freaking out! Surgery was 4/4 and a month later I have lost a total of 21pounds since surgery and 30 since preop diet. But that's it! I have been stalled for about a week now loosing a pound over the past week. Not sure why this is happening I am not exceeding 600-700 calories a day and mostly Proteins. Has anyone had this happen? Getting REALLY sad that I went through this for 30 pounds! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jenn298 36 Posted May 6, 2012 Don't freak out, its common. If you search stall on here you will get so many threads between week these and five. It happens to us all. 21 pounds since surgery is great. Just remember that this will pass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
warrior 9 Posted May 6, 2012 You're right on course I'd say. I'm one month out today and have lost 28. I also stalled and lost only two pounds this week. It's tough but I try not to compare my circumstance to others on the site or have unreasonable expectations. I wish I'd lost more, but I'm glad I've lost this much weight through hard work and sacrifice. Besides, I bet if we took an average of everyone at one month, we're probably just right where we should be. Relax. Remember back when we'd kill to lose 20 lbs? That was a month ago.

anniew 13 Posted May 6, 2012 Thanks everyone. I know that these stalls r common. I am thankful for the loss I've had so far BUT it's good to hear from others that have been or are going thru this... It's comforting :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cherrybomb 54 Posted May 6, 2012 I was sleeved on 4/3 and just today broke a 9 day stall. Not only did I not lose anything in those days, my body had the nerve to gain 2 pounds!!! I eat 700-800 calories a day, also mostly Protein. Today, I not only lost the 2 pounds I gained during the last 10 days, but also 2 more. I hope this means the stall is over for good.

aaeactive_gm 20 Posted May 6, 2012 I'm six weeks out and have lost about 30 since surgery...I think we are doing great. Take your measurements I'm sure those numbers are falling off Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anniew 13 Posted May 10, 2012 Update!! As of tuesday morning I lost another 2 pounds but I am now traveling for work and they don't have a scale at the hotel so I can't weight myself till Saturday morning. That's good cause I was weighting myself EVERYDAY. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
