10 Weeks Out 5 Week Stall !



Recommended Posts

I'll be 10 weeks out on Friday and haven't lost any weight for the last 5 weeks. How long does a normal stall last ?

We are all different and of course will lose weight at different rates, especially guys and gals. I too have been stuck, stalled for almost a month now. I keep telling myself to have patience, but I'm getting tired of looking at the same numbers, I want it to go down...NOW!

I had a 7+ week stall. Hang in there and remember not to starve your body or it will fight weight loss

Recently, I had a very long stall myself. I was stalled for about 2-3 months with zero loss, and bounced around the same 3-4 pounds. I was frustrated, and began to think possibly I was done losing. I finally decided that I needed to make some changes to continue my loss. I started exercising and going to the gym on a regular basis. I know we are supposed to start exercising from teh beginning, but I didn't. Adding the gym caused me to immediately start dropping again. I've lost about 15 lbs within the past month and a half by adding the gym into my daily routine. It really does work, and is actually far less effort then I chalked it up to be. My best advice, if your calories are on track, and everything else looks good, try upping your gym/cardio exercise and hopefully you'll see the movement again. Good luck!

Thanks ! It's nice to know I'm not the only one. And, my total gym came today so going to start adding in exercise as well.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
