1 month stall 3 months out



Recommended Posts

Hey, just curious if anyone has had such a long stall so early in the process. I hit a stall two months after surgery and it has been over a month now. I know stalls are normal and I just need to wait it out, just wanting to see if I'm the only one in this boat.

I'd also like to know the answer to this, because I'm 3 mos post op and have been stalled at 290 - 292 for the past 3 weeks now. I'm trying to increase my fluids to break the stall.

I don't have an answer but am going through this as well. RNY surgery 3/24 at 258lbs and lost steadily until 6/9 where I have been bouncing up and down the same 4-5lbs for the last 6 weeks. It's no fun but time will pass whether I dwell on it or not so I'm keepin' on! Good luck guys!

I was 258lb on 3/23 and I'm bouncing between 209 and 213 since 6/9 so ALMOST 50lbs. Almost...

I started out at 342, and now I'm stalled between 290-292.

i was in the same position. I had rny on 4/16. I weighed 300 starting out and stalled 2 months out just under the 50lb mark. I yo-yo'd between 252 and 256 losing and gaining the same weight for 4 weeks. Today I finally broke through to 249 after weighing 252 yesterday. Finally hit my 50lb goal! I started stalling right after I started my exercise program. I don't know if I can call it an official stall because I believe I lost inches; although, I did not measure. I have had a cold for the last few days, so I am not sure if that had anything to do with my weight loss. I have continued to monitor my food intake and exercise on my fitness pal. I have added more Protein to my diet by eating every 2-3 hours. Before I only ate the three meals and a Protein shake. This met my requirement of 60-80 grams of Protein a day. I consume more protein now with the two Snacks being either a piece of chicken or a greek yogurt. I hope to see the scale continue to move down.

I went through the same thing, I stalled for a month, and became so discouraged! I had my surgery 4/24/15 and last week I dropped 7lbs, and then 3 days later another 3lbs. I had only been losing 1-3 lbs per week and some weeks nothing. It will come off and shock you.. Hang in there!

      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.
