When did you have your first stall?



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved 9/12 and have so far lost 21lbs (Yay!) but haven't lost any in the last 10 days (frustrating!).

Was wondering, when other sleevers experienced their first stall...and how long it lasted.

I've been walking but have transitioned to mushy/soft solids but havd not exceeded daily caloric guidance...but maybe just transitioning after liquids made me stop?

Thanks!! Just hoping it picks up again, I still want to lose another 30-40lbs. ????

I was sleeved 8/31 and have lost 24 lbs post-op. They say you lose about 20 lbs the first month and then 2 lbs a week after that. I think you're right on track. When I hit my one month mark I stalled for about 10-14 days. I have to tell you that eventhough my scale isn't changing I am getting thinner everyday! I am losing inches and melting away. Keep in mind excercise builds muscle.

First stall was at about 2.5 weeks. It was the first of many. I do t let them bother me much any more. It is what it is. As long as I stick to my plan, the weight will come off.

I lost for about nine days, then bounced back and forth a pound for about nine days, now am back to losing. I am definitely losing inches, it is just my body adjusting.

I am not sure when I experienced my first stall because I only weighed at doctors appointments early out. But, just about everyone experiences a stall about three weeks after surgery.

Stalls are a normal, natural, and necessary part of the process of losing weight.

The first 10 days of my surgery. My weight did not change at all. My body likes to hang on to every single drop of Water, I swear ugh. Since then I'm going on wk 7 and no stalls as of yet.

I stalled on my 5th week and it lasted 10 days. I know its expected and happens to everyone but that doesn't make it less frustrating. You are doing everything right, staying within the nutritional guideline and exercising, and no loss on the scale!! Ugh!! But it's part of the process and we will have to be ready for more of these. I believe I came out of the stall by increasing my calories but don't know for sure.

Sleeved on 8/30. Stopped losing for a few days 6 weeks. Then lost a pound and regained and lost the same pound for a few more days. Lost another pound, but am back up a pound. I am following my plan, so I'm not worrying about it.

@cheryl1417 what did your doc say about your stall? Have you been getting your PROTIEN? Not giving up, right?? I'm sure the doc should have some sort of idea how to jump start it again???

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
