jenn298 36 Posted August 5, 2012 Did you have a stall around 4-5 months and if so how long did it last and how did you break it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
desertmom 297 Posted August 5, 2012 Hi I lose about 6-8 pounds fast and then I "adjust" (lol) for about 10 days.Then I lose fast again and thats been my pattern.Dont do long stalls. How much weight have you lost?You had your surgery about 2 weeks after me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
happy1957 138 Posted August 5, 2012 Hi, I am 7 months out from surgery, I had a stall at 3 weeks that lasted almost 4 weeks, another at 3 months that lasted 3 weeks and just finished another at 6 months that lasted 3 weeks. I continued to lose inches according to my friends, but the weight comes off slow and I typically see those big stalls, which my Dr told me are normal for 3, 6 and 9 months. It feels discouraging the first time around, but believe me, it will come off if you keep doing what is right. Good luck. 1 wanttolose32 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wanttolose32 15 Posted August 5, 2012 I am almost 4 months out and I get stalls too, in fact I am in one now for a little over a week now, kind of frustrating, I understand. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carbgrl 119 Posted August 5, 2012 I lost very little in month 4 &5 but my body shape has changed alot. All of a sudden XL tops were way to big. I dont measure but I most have lost alot of inches. It's amazing. Now that I'm almost 6 months out I've started losing again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Renea77 84 Posted August 5, 2012 I am 5 months out sleeved two weeks before you and have had some stalls, but none lasted too long. I was told to eat some carbs(good carbs) and sleep as your body needs rest if you are working out alot like I was. Broke my stall in 2-3 days and haven't had a stall in months. I have lost 66 pounds to date and am 5 pounds from goal, my new concern is will my body recognize that and stop losing weight? I work out 5-6 times a week and am a little nervous I could end up way under goal....not complaining though I used to be way over goal lol! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Renea77 84 Posted August 5, 2012 I was sleeved two weeks before you and am down 66 pounds. I had some stalls in the beginning but was told to eat carbs, change up my routine and sleep. Did that and it broke my stall, haven't had one in awhile. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
