I know this is posted on here a million times.

I am 17 weeks out tomorrow and starting to stress. I have lost 1kg in 5 weeks.

I have lost 44 lbs and have about 44lbs to go.

Is this normal ? 5 weeks is so long

I've gone that long without any weight loss too. You might look at the types of carbs you're eating and how many. I've found that even eating too much fruit can put me into a stall.

Salt is another big one I have to watch out for. Over Thanksgiving and Xmas I was eating a lot of spiral ham. The extra salt kept a lot of Water weight on me.

I'm 15 weeks out and the loss has been very slow the past few weeks. My carbs are under control and I don't eat much salt. It's very frustrating.

So today I reached 18 weeks and finally a loss after nearly 6 weeks of floating around the same weight. I lost 500grams.. Fist punching!!!

Was starting to let it really get to me. No weight loss for sooo long

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

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
