Stalled weight loss



Recommended Posts

I am almost 4 months out and it appears my weight loss has stalled. I'm not doing anything different then before I'm getting very discouraged. I have lost 72lbs and need to lose 60 more. Maybe I will switch up my exercise and see if that will help. Anyone else stalled with there weight loss?

I had a horrific stall at around 6 months for 6 weeks. And yup, it's time to shake things up to see if you can break it. Sometimes you just have to ride it out.

If you aren't exercising, it's time to start. If you are, time to increase your cardio. Just add an extra day or a few more minutes to each workout (or walk, or swim, or bike ride, or whatever).

Believe it or not, increasing your calories a little may help, too. If you're doing 800, increase them to 900. Also if you aren't tracking your Protein and calories, start. It really helps keeping you accountable for the little extras we may be sneaking into our diets without even realizing it.

And as always, drink until you pee every 20 minutes :P Hope that helps! Good luck!

      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.
