COnative 192 Posted November 2, 2012 YES! I stalled at week 4, 6, and now 8. But even though the scale isn't moving my clothes keep feeling better! Hang in there! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Webchickadee 716 Posted November 2, 2012 Yes, I stalled for approx. 10 days at day 34 post-op and started losing again on day 48 post-op. I then went into a pattern for the next several months where I would lose for approx. 20 days each month and stall for approx 10-12 days that same month. It's just your body trying to adjust to the new weigh distribution, and your metabolism trying to equilibrate. It's tough, but try to be patient and if you can, stay away from the scale for a few days. And even more importantly, start tracking your measurements. Even when the scale is not moving, you may be losing inches! I measure every month on the anniversary of my surgery (surgiversary). 2 Red597 and COnative reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
