I haven’t hit this spot yet, but if there’s one thing I’ve learned on here, it’s that these spans of no weight loss occur. And it seems like the first one comes sometime in the first month. Don’t worry, stick to your plan, try not to feel too discouraged, and know that this (both the stall and your feelings about it) are just part of the process. Let it happen, and in time you’ll be right back at it.

I don't weigh myself anymore. I'm 7 weeks post op. I just go by the way clothes are fitting and they are falling off of me. So that's a victory. I go for my 3 month follow-up in Jan so I'll weigh at the doctors office. I can't weigh myself it will seriously screw my head seeing the scale at the same weight. After my last stall I said Nope not weight myself again. I did lose tons of weight over night after my last stall but I haven't weighed myself since. Just sticking to my fish, steak veggies and Protein Shakes working my ass off. Don't get discouraged by the stall it will pass just push through it

What are you eating. Are you weighing food ? Keeping your fluids up ? Stalls happen for no reason but just make sure everything is in check.

I am in my 5th month post operation, I have noticed that I think more about what I am eating more than I ever did before, might be why I was just a couple of pounds below 500 before my surgery, I lost 100 lbs because of the pre-surgery diet, I've now lost 150 lbs all together I am constantly amazed at my results so far, I noticed that I now have a lap, for my little dog's to sit in my lap.... It's funny, the thing's I notice about my weight loss.... lol do any of y'all have any suggestions for a good Protein Shake? I am having trouble finding one my stomach doesn't instantly refuse to allow in it .

I am 4 weeks post op too and the scales stay the same but I can feel the weight loss in my clothes!! I wouldn’t worry about it too much as many people on this forum have said to expect a stall 3 to 4 weeks post op! Good luck with it and hopefully the scales will move in our favour again!!

I really like Syntrax fuzzy navel, and vanilla bean torte. Also, optimum nutrition double rich chocolate. Those are all powders. Mix the fuzzy navel with Water. The other I like with milk. I've been considering combing fuzzy navel with vanilla bean for a sort of dreamscicle taste. Unflavored is also pretty useful. Add it to broth, Soup, mashed potatoes (watch the carbs though), milk, etc.
