Bufflehead 6,358 Posted April 21, 2014 Most people experience a weight loss slow down or even a complete halt somewhere between weeks 2 and 4. This is completely normal. Your body is adjusting and healing still -- just keep following your program and eventually the weight will start to come off again. Also, you may want to step away from the scale for at least the next couple of weeks or you may drive yourself nuts. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stalls are common, and happen to pretty much everyone. I think someone here once said that posts about disappointing numbers are the most common posts of all. Yet if you look at long-term stats, everyone does well at the end of the day. Keep plugging along, follow your doctors instructions, vent here when you need to. You're going to be fine. Denise (who is pushing through a huge stall herself. LOL) Be well… Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
