I'm 3 weeks out, lost 25 lbs (including pre-op diet) and I'm stalled for over a week now. Has anyone else had a stall this early?

The three week stall is the most common, notorious stall. It's perfectly normal. Mine lasted for 7 days some people's last longer.

YES! Me too! I am 4 weeks out and I lost 17-18 lbs by week 2 but have stalled for the last 2. (my starting weight was 220). I am just starting to use my treadmill, hoping it will help. good luck.

yes but i increased my daily walking and my stall broke

so glad I saw this, I have just started using my treadmill hoping it will help. do you think 15 min. 2X a day is enough- my speed is set at 2 I think.

I was already doing 30 minutes per day. i was doing 15 minutes twice a day. and i stalled so i had to increase it to 60 minutes per day. since i increased it to 60 minutes per day i have lost 8 pounds. I increased my walking on July 26th

Yes, I am 4 weeks out, and after the first week, I stalled for 2 weeks!! I was so confused as why, since my lifestyle had totally changed. The scale finally moved again this week, and I've lost 4 lbs. I haven't worked out, since I was feeling pretty run down. I was only active doing house chores. I am sure when I start a walking program that scale will move faster. You are not alone!!!!

thanks ladies! It's been at least 10 or 11 days and my scale is STUCK. I keep thinking it MUST be broken, but I know it's just a stall. I've been working out 4 days a week for an hour each time, so I know I'm doing the right thing, so I'll just have to wait it out. Can't wait to see that scale move!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
