I was just wondering the same thing. Sleeved 3-JUN and nothing in a week.

Well I'm only 7 weeks out but I had a 4 week (yes 4 whole weeks) stall. I read on the boards that it is not unusual to stall within the first 2 months while your body heals itself.

This is normal and it probably will happen again unfortunately but it will start again. My wife stalled for 3 weeks but then went and got a Vitamin B12 shot and lost 8 pounds over that next week after stalling for 3.

i seem to be at a stall too. getting soft foods down and feeling good but no weight loss for a week. Hoping it is just a short stall.

I'm in my second stall now. I was stalled for 4 weeks. Then had a loss. Now stalled again and have been now this second time for 3 weeks. I'm only 8 weeks out so out of my 8 weeks, 7 have been spent stalled. Not exciting in terms of the scale moving but the inch loss is awesome.

I've been in a 2-month stall since 6 months out, but I'm staying focused. Just added more exercise and more Protein (in my coffee and through out the day) and I'm seeing some progress. Down a couple pounds this week. Just walked in the park and played tennis with family and friends. I'm spoiled by the 5-7 # a week losses I had in the beginning. I need to lose another 50-60# to get to goal and I hope to get there by December. Still happy I'm almost down 100#.

Stalls are pretty common, but I think maybe you should start working on your expectations now. The further out you get, the less you usually lose each week.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
