Mine lasted about 2 weeks. Then I was down about another 4 pounds, but this morning I was the same weight as yesterday. I have a LOT of trouble getting in more than 600-700 calories though, which doesn't help.

I am very surprised when I hear that , I had my surgery 8 days ago and I have lost 12 lbs , and during my 14 day pre op diet , Lost 15 lbs total weight loss 27 lbs. Down to 210 lbs.

Have you asked your doctor why this is happening? please keep me posted I would really like to know why this happens to some people.

I wish you the best of luck.

Judging from what I've seen here, a week 3 stall is pretty common. After all, most of us are living on super low calories now. Haven't bothered to ask because I'm doing everything right nutritionally and I really can't complain about losing 50 pounds in about 6 weeks. There are a lot of reasons to stall or plateau and while I'll grumble and I hate them royally, I know it's just a part of losing a lot of weight really quickly.

I was sleeved oct 23, four weeks ago today! First 10 days, I lost 14 pounds! Since then, I've only lost 2 more, and that was just in the last couple days! Hopefully the losing will pick up soon! This is more of a struggle than I expected!

Yeah--after all the years of dieting I know that an increased calorie day would be helpful for me and my stall, but like a previous poster said, I struggle to get in enough calories daily--I feel like I am always eating or drinking something to get in fluids or Protein.< /p>

At stalls though, I will be even more thankful for my sleeve though because without it, stalls tended to make me say "screw it" and go "off" my diet. This time I will persevere!!!

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
