3 weeks out , scale not moving



Recommended Posts

I’m 3 weeks post op and the scale has not moved in 10 days. I am eating 600-800 calories a day and I’m trying to walk 3.5 Miles 3x a week.

I’m drinking a Protein Shake every morning which is 30 gram of Protein and eating three small meals a day. Is there something I’m doing wrong ? Should I excercise more ?

My Water intake is about 48 oz

im afraid I’m not going to lose weight , what can I do to get the scale moving more?

What really counts is your measurements in my opinion, I bet they’re moving. Don’t worry about it, it’ll drop and remember you’re fresh out of surgery, your body is healing too. Classic 3 week stall....don’t stress.

Google three week stall. This happens to everyone. Focus on following your plan and continuing to change your relationship with food. The weight will come off in its own time.

Remember this journey is a marathon -- not a sprint.

Lol, oh if i had a nickel every time someone asked this question I could buy prime Super Bowl tickets!!!

'The Dreaded 3 Week Stall'...yep happens to nearly everyone. Your body just had major surgery, has inflammation and healing to do, and adjustments to low calorie consumption, etc. Be patient.
