5 week early stall BROKEN :)



Recommended Posts

I know stall posts are all the rage :) and I definitely commented on a few the last few weeks. I was sleeved on 4/7 and lost big the first two weeks but had completely stalled for almost 5 weeks and I was stressing! Not even slow but no movement on the scale. But finally this week I am down six pounds from last week. Hope this helps someone else in the endless (seeming) stall point.

I'm so glad you posted this because I'm over here going crazy! I've been stuck on the same amount for about 2 weeks now and I was really worried

Especially so early! Usually the beginning of a program is the easiest/biggest losses. Can't slow down from zero lol.

In my first stall. Surgery was 3 weeks, 2 days ago and I haven't lost anything in 8 days. Not that its a huge/long stall, but I'm so early in my weight loss I was shocked I'm already stalled. What broke your stalls?

I am sooo glad you posted this! I had my surgery a day after you, on April 8 and I have been stalled for weeks. I have only lost 28 pounds in almost 2 months and most of that was the first 2 weeks. Its quite discouraging. I hope things get moving again.

I don't know if anything broke my stall. My doc and nutritionist said you are doing it right keep going. I didn't actively try to change things up on my plan.

I too am glad to read this. One of the hardest things for me is not seeing the scale move for almost a week and surgery was May 20. I really have no idea if I'm doing things right or wrong. Just trying to drink , get in some Protein at this point. Hope it all settles in so I feel like I'm actually eating separate meals, counting calories etc. right now feel like I'm just hanging on!

I've finally gotten past my 1 week stall. My surgery was May 13th and I went in weighing 330. I lost about 22 pounds post op (2weeks later). During week 3, I went through a small stall, just for a few days,which was discouraging, but I still continued to exercise and eat correctly. Now I am 3 pounds lighter.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
