Even with my period I'm stalled. Normally (pre-op) I would go up 3-4 lbs. But my stall is for real, so it won't even go up during my period. I'm on now and this is the first time I haven't gained weight during my period.

I officially have the super stall!

Yea I'm only 3 weeks (not even) post op and I'm at a stall and then I stepped on the scale it said i gained two lbs. it has always been common for me to go up a couple lbs during my period though so I'm hoping this is just what it is. Trying not to get discouraged ????

Don't get discouraged. I've told my story so many times to people because I have the super stall going on. Been sleeved 9 weeks with 7 of those in a stall. Following all the directions given by my Nut and Dr.

It's a running joke because I'm now smaller (size) at this weight than I was when I weighed 50 lbs less. I'm starting to consider running off to the circus because there is no way a woman my height and weight should be in such a small size.

The 3 week stall is super common. And gaining with TOM and/or stalling is common too. Don't worry! I always gained a few lbs and/or stalled during TOM...

Do you know how long the stall lasts or is it different for everyone at 3 weeks?

It's different for everybody. I had several Along the way. The first few really upset me then I realized how much my body was actually changing during these stalls. Your body's cells have to re-align and re-adjust after weight changes so it makes sense really. I know I had one stall that liked to drove me crazy that lasted 3 weeks or so but in that time frame my pants got so loose I had to go buy smaller ones. So I stopped thinking of those periods as stalls and realized they were really just adjustment periods my body needed.

Always gained 3 lbs during that time. I stalled right after my surgery, I wasn't getting enough calories in.

      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.
