This is normal and will happen many times!! Stalls are just part of the process. Some people increase the amount of Protein they have and that seems to move it. Otherwise, just keep doing the right thing (and stop weighing yourself!!) and you will get past the stall. Just make sure you are following all the basics. You'll do it! You will be fine

I am in same bind right now! I had a melt down this morning. Including the 2 week presurgical diet I am down 36 lbs (16 lbs after surgery) I am going onto week 3 post surgicial and gained 1 lb saturday and maintained today. It is so effin frustrating. Im following full liquids to a T and did 15,000 steps yesterday but no budge. I was losing steady before this. I want to lose at least 80 more lbs. And my hunger is coming back. Havent felt that till now!

You're okay. It is normal to stall at 2-3 weeks post op. I went up a pound. Just keep doing your program. You are doing amazing! The weight is coming off. I thought the hunger would disappear but it didn't. I eat when I'm hungry but only a few bites and I am satisfied. I eat a little less at my next meal and journal my intake to keep on track. You are doing really well.

Hi guys... it is absolutely normal to hit a couple of stalls along the way. Your body has been through a lot, is healing and will get to a point where it will catch up and pause. Dont be discouraged...this journey is real, the weight loss is real and you WILL be down 80 lbs before you know it (as long as you keep following your plan). I am just at 6 months and have hit a few stalls where zero weight came off for a few weeks...dont give up, just be patient.

do a search on "three week stall". It happens to almost everyone. There should be millions of threads on it in here...

      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. 🤞
