Weight loss Stalls



Recommended Posts

Just curious for some of you what your longest stalls were and how far along you were post-op that you had your first stall?

I had bypass on 10-17-17

I started my journey in Jan of last year I was 581

I was 475 on surgery day

Today I’m 404 but I have been 404-408 since 2/18

Still doing all the right things or at least I think I am. I’ve also tried upping and lowering my calories no luck.

I’m trying to not get down about it but I just have this goal of being 399 or less and my first major milestone and to be at 404 and having this stall like I have been is getting to me.

Just curious any advice or encouragement any of you other guys have for me as I keep telling myself it’s only temporary but how long does temporary have to last.

Thanks everyone.

Haven’t had the surgery yet but 2 if my friends have had pretty much the same dilemma and the nutritionist recommended upping the Protein

I have stalled a few times myself it is normal for sure can last a week or a month but don't worry it will get start going down again soon. I noticed if I don't get enough Protein in daily I will start to stall also so protein i think is important... hang in there it's part of the process.. and even when your not loosing weight on the scale your body is getting smaller in inches ....

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
