Have you been taking measurements? Sometimes you're losing fat and gaining muscle and you won't see that on the scale, mostly just in the way your clothes are fitting (as a pound of muscle is more dense and compact than a pound of fat).

Otherwise, make sure you're drinking your Water, eating healthy (maybe double check your diet and make sure you're not creeping up on carbs/fat?) and exercise.

When I hit my first stall I was told to make sure of 2 things: I was getting at least the required liquids and a I was getting at least the required Protein. I found I was not quite hitting either. I was 'close' & in the ballpark, but not quite. Once I adjusted the scale started moving again.

The first stall at 3 weeks out is completely normal and different than a stall at 11 months out.

You need to reevaluate what you're doing and then change it up. Your body has either gotten complacent, or there are certain behaviors sneaking back in that are causing you to stall.

If you're not tracking.and measuring portions, start.

If you're not excersising at least 4 or 5 days a week 30 minutes a day, start. If you are, change it up. Excerise smarter.

If you're not getting 64oz of Water, drink up!

Are you ALWAYS eating protien first to keep you full and satisfied? If not, start.

Have you let too much sugar or white carbs sneak into your diet? If so, stop it!

I'm the queen of stalls. I've had at least a half a dozen in almost a year. You either gotta change things up, or wait them out. I prefer to be proactive and change things up. Good luck!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
