annam1130 40 Posted January 24, 2016 ImageUploadedByBariatricPal1453657111.958002.jpg I found this online and thought it was an appropriate supplement for this post. Saved it to my phone. I'll be 8 weeks postop tomorrow and I anticipate a stall soon based on others' reports of when they stalled. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cari Dickenson 148 Posted January 25, 2016 I'm 6 wks out and am currently in my first stall. Glad I've seen this post come up before otherwise I'd be rather frustrated right now. That's about when mine started it lasted about two weeks... now its back to a couple pounds a week. Docs said as long as no gain... then its good... and not to worry to try to change up something you do or eat. What worked for me honestly I jsut eat meat... and take my Vitamins gym 4 days a week I started just last week cos I wasn't released yet.... from the docs. You got this Enjoy your amazing changes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Inner Surfer Girl 12,015 Posted January 29, 2016 I don't think there is a "normal". My observation is it's more cyclical for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yerawizardamy 241 Posted February 7, 2016 I've seen you post a link for this thread many times, and I've just gone searching for it now that I've officially hit my "three week stall". I was hoping that I would be special but alas, here I am. I'm not worried about it, really. I know that what I've been (or haven't been) doing is a big factor. I guess this stall was the kick in the pants that I needed to really get serious about exercise/water/protein. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NYLux12 50 Posted February 9, 2016 My stall has lasted for a month now. In the first month after surgery I lost about 30 lbs, in the second month I lost about 5 lbs. So, I made a phone appointment with my nutritionist for the end of this week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2muchfun 8,927 Posted February 9, 2016 NYLux12 I stalled two weeks out from surgery and didn't restart losing till I was about 4 months out. My visit with my nut did it for me. Good idea to visit with your nut. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Inner Surfer Girl 12,015 Posted February 23, 2016 I talked with my massage therapist today about stalls. It was the first time I had seen her so I told her briefly about my journey and that I have lost a significant amount of weight and have a significant amount more to lose. Most of her questions were about extra skin. I told her I had noticed that stalls were when I noticed that my skin tended to tighten up, Once I was on the table she said she thought my skin looked really good. It's probably because I drink lots of Water, stay moisturized, but also because my body is doing a lot of work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
