Have Been On 3 Weeks Stall =(



Recommended Posts

Good morning everyone!! It's been 5 months already, hurray! So far down 71 lbs but for the last 3 weeks I haven't lost anything =(... Still exercising 5 times a week and eating the same amounts.. but not sure if its a normal stall or what! Anyone experienced a stall around this month? I'm just thinking its weird since I am burning what I intake, maybe it is the muscle I am gaining.. The trainer measured me and I did increase muscle on my legs... not sure if that is holding me back..

Yes, I am 5 months out too and yes, stalls are common for me now. I am working out too and stalling for 1-2 weeks then lose 3-5 lbs, stalling again and losing again...weird cycle but at least I am still losing.

Pshaw! 3 weeks ain't nothin'! LOL

Just keep going, keep your calories UP, don't skimp, and you will lose weight - you are probably losing inches!

You are doing great! Dont forget that!

I'm six months out and stall constantly. I stalled for about a month around 4.5 months. That is around the time that I started hiking strenuously. For me, it's the carbs that don't sit well with me unless I'm actually hiking that day.

Be sure to read Benjammin's post on stalls, Good stuff! That explains the exercise, stall, gain a bit, lose inches, then lose more weight scenario I am going through.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
