ylluz 151 Posted March 2, 2016 I went into the mall and found some size 16 jeans bought them tried them on when got home and they fit!! Sooo happy but my confusion is that I have been on a stall for over a month and the scale goes up and down 2 and I feel like a failure. I know is part of te process but is hard when you have no support so that is why I come here!!! Just venting by the way I went from a size 22 to 16 and that great for me because I am curvy and even at small sizes before it is a struggle finding jeans.surgery was 8/17/16 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Inner Surfer Girl 12,015 Posted March 2, 2016 Just because the numbers on the scale aren't moving doesn't mean your body isn't doing a tremendous amount of work to become smaller. Think of stalls as as necessary to your weight loss as sleep is to your overall health. None of us lose at a constant or steady rate and stalls are a normal, natural, and necessary part of the process. Enjoy the size 16 jeans! You probably won't be able to wear them for very long.

JamieLogical 8,710 Posted March 2, 2016 Many people who experience a stall on the scale are still losing inches. That's why it's great to take your measurements regularly. So when the scale is being a bi***, you can go to the tape measure and still see some progress. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Katnroyal 225 Posted March 2, 2016 During my stalls I would quit weighing and start measuring! I would always lose inches during my stalls and that's usually when I would go down a size! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
