How long does 3 so stall last?



Recommended Posts

I was three weeks post-op on Wednesday, and haven't lost a pound since then. (will be one week of a stall). This also coincides with moving into soft foods per my doctor's plan. Should I go back a stage in the food plan or keep going with the soft foods?

Well, my three week stall has now hit four weeks so I'm still waiting.

I've been familiar with stalls when I lost weight in the past pre-op. Some have lasted 3 months. I'm not sure that this one will last that long, but I'm a patient man.

No just continue with the program and let the magic happen. Stalls are common.

Definately do not change your food plan. Stalls will happen and I would not consider a stall a stall until you've not lost anything in two weeks.

My longest stall lasted a month.

Your body simply needs time to adjust, embrace the stall, it will end.

Follow your food plan exactly.

My week three stall started at 3 and a half weeks and lasted about a week and a half. When I finally did lose, I dropped three pounds overnight. Stay on you food plan. The weight loss will come. Monitor your measurements. You will pleasantly surprised to see how many inches you are losing even if it doesn't show on the scale.
