first stall



Recommended Posts

So was sleeved on July 16 and everything is going great. Down 50lbs total and 22 since surgery. So now my nut has even warned me of the upcoming stall. How long does it last? Week /2 weeks? Not that it matters but looking for experience. Tks

I too have stalled. My sleeve was on July 14. Weighed in at 320 day of surgery and now at 305 but have not lost any this week. I have heard of a 3 week stall but how long does it last? My highest weight was 350.

I was sleeved 1-23-14 one week is not a stall trust me I thought that too and people with more time told me the same now that I'm 6 months out and have had no movement of the scale in a month This is a stall very frustrating but the "vets" told me it happens and to look at measurements and non scale victories and soon the stall would break I have seen my measurements come down still and I've had a couple NSV

Hang in there you guys we are all gonna make it through this

It happens to everyone. It will happen throughout the time your losing. I've stalled 4 or 5 times in the 7 months since surgery. I am currently in a stall. I hit 188lbs and have seen the scale move up to 190 in the past 2 weeks. same thing happened about 6 weeks ago. Getting ready to drop below under 200lbs and poof I gained a couple pounds. A week or so later I was down to 197.

There is no time frame and no set schedule for stalls.

I was sleeved on 08 July 14. Starting weight was 363 and surgery weight was 338. Down to 312 as of a week ago but have stalled since then. I've upped exercise, worked to get in the required Water and Protein.

I was beginning to worry that there was something I was, or wasn't, doing. Feel better now. Loving how much better I feel, that people can visibly notice the difference in my appearance, and starting to really notice the change in how clothes fit...or don't fit to be more precise.

Sleeved on 06/19/14. I have noticed a stair step with weight loss. I will stay at a weight for as long as a week and then in the matter of 2-4 days will lose 3 or 4 pounds. I still have not pinpointed why this is happening. Curious if anyone else is experiencing this.

      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. 🤞
