3 months out stall

[d258 26]

I've read about the 3 week stall and even a 6 month stall. Anyone stuck/been stuck on a 3 month stall? I'm going into the 4th week of this stall with my weight fluctuating up and down 2-4 ounces. No changes in body measurements either. Protein goals and Water goals met. Not sure what else I can do other than ride this out. All suggestions welcome!

documenting and weighing out everything, even bites of food?

how many calories and carbs?

I would start ^ and maybe even mix up the calories a bit depending on your current amount and see if that gets things moving.

stalls happen throughout this journey and there are no guidelines for how often or the duration.

how far post are you?

welcome to the BP family!

Ohhhh good point on tracking everything! I had surgery on April 1- so literally just 3 months out

This stall is so discouraging!

Stalls are a normal, natural, and necessary part of the process of losing significant amount of weight. Other than the third week stall, there isn't a predictable timetable.

I know I am late to this but yes, the three month stall got me too. Its ROUGH but i am trying to not let it get me down. As always, it will pass if you have more weight to lose. Patience is key! and to not get discouraged! i SHOULD take my own advice haha but glad I am not alone.

I'm at the 3 month stall too. It's been almost 4 weeks, so discouraging. I see my nutritionist next week I hope she can help.

Hey, just so everyone knows you're not alone! I'm just shy of 3 months and am about to hit my 4th week at the EXACT same weight. I have significantly increased my protein/bumped my calories up to 1200-1300 and swapped out diet iced tea w/ artificial sweetener for lemon Water. The only thing I haven't done is a ton of exercise but I have gone on some long walks. But really, it just seems like a true stall since it's been so long at the same weight. I was hoping to be less by this point for a vacation i'm going on this week but it is what it is! Hopefully it breaks soon
