IdahoGirl32 89 Posted October 10, 2013 I've heard SO many people say they hit a stall around this time. Don't worry! You're not alone! Seriously, if you follow the rules and can only eat a few ounces at a time, how could you NOT lose weight? This is just your body adjusting to the changes. Be gentle with yourself and stay positive! Yay! 3 jamill527, Tbird49 and LOVE4JEH reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

caligirl3 73 Posted October 10, 2013 I'm pre-op still but I have read so many people talk about the 3 week stall... Metabolisms are weird. Drink a ton of Water, stay the course and it will come off... I'm hoping to only weigh in monthly for this reason. Don't know how I'll do with that, but I'll try! 1 Tbird49 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jamill527 118 Posted October 10, 2013 I had my surgery 9/10/13 and I'm having the same issue. I'm getting pretty emotional about it because I don't want to fail at this. My pre op weight was 297 and post op 270. I'm lost cause I been stuck at 270 for 2 weeks now. 1 Tbird49 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dustin551 84 Posted October 10, 2013 That first stall will last 2-3 weeks. What you are feeling is totally normal. I posted something similar at two weeks out. You can't fail with this. You'll see. I'd tell you to put the scale away, but I still haven't been able to do it. I like weighing myself every day. 3 Tbird49, caligirl3 and jamill527 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
