When is the stall going to come?



Recommended Posts

I'm almost 5 weeks post surgery and I still haven't hit a stall yet. I thought it was supposed to happen at 3 weeks. I know it's weird to want to stall but now I'm afraid I'll lose too fast and end up getting gallstones. Any incite on this?

Ha ha. What a great question. Everyone loses weight differently depending on multiple factors. I had first stall at 2 weeks, and then have had multiple ones after that. Expecting another one soon. When I was much younger I would diet and lose quickly with no stall.

Don't know what to say about your gall bladder. Have you asked your surgeon about losing too fast? Certainly wouldn't hurt.

im 3 months post op. I haven't really experienced a stall yet. I have some weeks where I lose a small amount like 1 lb but its still a loss. Close to my cycle like now I tend to hover back and forth 2 lbs. for about a week even 2. After, I'll have a larger loss like 5-8lbs. My losses have been steady. Embrace it! I understand we only have about 9-12 months to lose like this after that it slows down significantly. I plan to take full advantage and reach under goal within that time. That way-- I can work on maintainence.
