How long does the 3rd week stall last? I want to start losing weight...I feel so discouraged ugh. I've lost about 20lbs so far but I really want to start losing again or I feel like I'm suffering for no reason ????

Can someone tell me how to get off the stall quicker?

It is different for everyone. I stalled for 2 weeks and even gained 2 pounds but I relost it. I am now a little over 5 weeks post op and have lost 20 pounds post op.

Weeks 5 and 6 I lost 2 1/2lbs. But after the stall I lost 5lbs. It's been 2 months and I've lost 38lbs. Trust me, stalls will happen, it's ok. Don't get discouraged. ❤️

I have had two minor stalls since June 10th, when I see a stall I just go back to basics for 2 or 3 days, and continue my activity level, Protein for Breakfast, light lunch, and light protein dinner and lots of fluids, plus 3 days a week at the gym, 388lbs in January, on June 10th surgery date was at 346lbs, then last Monday @ 296lbs, so 92lbs lost since January........ So approximately

11.5lbs per month, so 227lbs by February 2016 then 29lbs more to goal weight if I can keep up this pattern, I think it's reasonable for me, I just don't stop because of stalls, I keep looking ahead and keeping my mind on the goal!!!!?

I'm there with ya. I didn't lose weight for about 11 days but the last couple of days, the scale has gone down a little. Very little, but it's going down. I'm trying to hang in there but it is frustrating for sure.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
