3 day stall already at 21 days out?



Recommended Posts

Did anyone else have any stalls around 3 weeks? For the past 3 days I have not lost 1 pound. I am following directions with walking daily to a T. Getting frustrated.

The Week 3 stall is legendary. Mine lasted a couple of weeks. Don't be discouraged though. Just keep following your program while your body adapts to all the changes and it will reward you by shedding pounds. Take good care of yourself!

I had 3 week stall, like majority of people. Your body says " what the heck" and going on strike :) I am slow loser and I stall every other week for a week. Everybody is different, but remember that this too, shall pass. You'll start losing again!

I understand how you feel I stalled going in to week 3 I have not lost anything in 8 days. At first I was ok I knew I would stall at some time but now I am getting depressed about it. My energy level is bad and not losing any weight does not happen ready for a change!

I was the same way. I knew there would be stalls, but I wasn't emotionally prepared to look at the scale and see the same number for 4-7 days straight! It is REALLY hard, but it will pass :) A lot of people have experienced a bigger loss in inches during weight stalls...so there is a silver lining :) Keep doing what you're doing...this too shall pass.

So what do you consider a stall? Just curious.

I think it depends on the person & their personal progress so far....I personally used to consider a stall to be no weight loss in 3+ days because I typically saw the number on the scale dropping on a daily basis. However, as I get further out, it is common for me to notice weight loss every 2-4 days... so now I consider a stall 1 week without loss.

3 weeks post op....5 days with no loss

Its normal I have been almost 3 weeks Sunday will be 3 weeks on the same weigth :(

But with the support im recieving here from people that are bypass success im starting to learn that its a process and we have to be patience and follow the doctors diet :) the stall will go away when our body consider its time to start loosing again.

      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.

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