how long do stalls last?



Recommended Posts

I am 4 weeks and have been in a stall for over 2 weeks. I'm just wondering how long stalls typically last. I just jeep hoping that today will be the day that it finally breaks. So frustrating!

Stalls ate super frustrating.. My order stall was at three weeks and from what I heard it was fairly common that it happens then the dreaded "week three stall" mine lasted like 3 weeks but then the scale was on the go again!!! I hope that the scale starts moving along for you too! Don't get discouraged keep eating right and drinking lots of water!! :D

Anywhere from 2 weeks to 4+months. I've only had one, but it lasted 7 weeks.

On YouTube Dr. Alvarez does a weekly video. His topic this week is the dreaded stall. It's a really good explanation and should help you feel a little bit better. (no, I don't work for him) ;-)

Stalls SUCK and are mental torture!! LOL

I stalled at week 3 and it lasted for 3 weeks... or something like that. IDK, it's been so long it's hard to remember. But I was pretty traumatized at the time! LOL

Now I am a little over 6 months out and have lost 94 lbs since surgery - 120 all together. I think I am in the midst of my second one - but I mean hey, I can't complain! That type of loss in 6 months is awesome. But I worked for it!

Your scale will start moving again - even though for some people it was impossible to do (like ME!)-- try not to weigh for a week or so - easier said than done, I know.

I was a certifiable scale wh0re - weighed twice a day - now I weigh about twice a week!

Best of luck to you!!!
