I had my sleeve April 1, and lost 50 pounds that month. Naturally I was excited, but now the next two months I haven't lost an ounce! I know stalls are normal, but I don't think I have heard of one that lasted this long. I'm really starting to think that I am never going to lose weight!

Have you spoken with your surgeon and NUT? Also, are you logging a food diary? You may be able to go back through that to see if anything changed. I could help your NUT too to see what you're doing and try to help. It may just be a long stall too.

You should speak to your surgeon or NUT to see whats going on. I was sleeved on 4/9 and I have lost 44 pounds so you are still doing better then me :) I notice that I tend to lose weight every 3 weeks or so and nothing in between. Based on what I have read and heard mixed with my limited experience I am a believer that if you stick to your plan and meet your Water and Protein goals you will lose the weight. Good luck and please keep us updated!

Ya, I can relate OG36.

I have been in a stall for about 8 weeks now. I had surgery 3/5 and have lost 40 lbs. but that was all by the end of april. I continued to lose inches for a few more weeks, but that has stopped as well. I have increased my Water and am revamping my diet as well. Hoping to break this stall. Its getting discouraged, but I know that this can't be the end. I started exercising too. I definitely need to stay off the scale for a while, cuz its driving me INSANE. Im happy with what I have lost, would never have been able to be were I'm at with out VSG, but I was hoping for that slow continue 1 to 2 pound loss a week like every one else is getting. Feeling frustrated.

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