3 week post op stall



Recommended Posts

Hello, I️ was sleeved on October 26 and I️ have lost 21 lbs my pre surgery weight was 218 lbs and I’m now at 197lbs. I️ haven’t lost a pound all week and I’m concerned I’m getting about 650 calories in daily I’m keeping the carbs under 50 grams so why haven’t I️ lost a lbs. I️ think I’m panicking, what if this doesn’t work? I️ was weighing myself everyday which I️ have stopped and as soon as I️ stopped so did the scale. HELP!

You're definitely losing fat at that calorie deficit but it sometimes takes a while for Water weight to sort itself out. Stay hydrated and lay off the salt to help clear it.

Many people stall around 2-3 weeks. Check around the forums and you'll see plenty of threads with the same fears. Keep following your doctor/nutritionist guidelines, give it another week or two, and it'll sort out. :) Hang in there!
