Stalled 4 months out



Recommended Posts

Hey guys. I was sleeved on 10/6/16 at 284lbs. I'm currently 204/205 and have been stalled for like 2 weeks. I run 3 miles 5-6 days a week. Any advice on breaking this stall?? I want to get under 200!! Lol

To break my stall, I upped my calorie intake. I was actually eating ice cream and still losing weight.

I was sleeved a couple weeks before you and I'm just coming out of a month long stall. I don't know what caused the stall to break, but I will say that going shopping and buying clothes in a smaller size really helped my psyche...and the day after I did that, my stall broke.

(Shopping breaks stalls!!! LOLOL)

I've stalled a few times, its normal. My longest so far was right at 4 months! I stayed at 171 lbs for 3 weeks. Yet, my clothes were still getting looser. hang in there...your body is just adjusting!

Funny... I have the same surgery date (10/6) and I'm also stalled.
It's been two weeks. I have increased my Protein and will see what happens. I'm sure things will continue to move eventually so I'm waiting it out. After a 42lb weight loss I will not complain.

I broke an old stall like that. It didn't work this time though

So it must just be a normal point to stall. Hopefully it'll pass soon.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
