I feel like I’ve stopped losing weight. Is this common at 3 weeks?

The 3rd week stall is a common occurrence. You can search BP and find many instances of this happening. Power through, your weight loss will continue!

@josh m.. I was sleeved the 1st and my scale has barely budged since surgery! But inches are coming off and everyone has noticed a huge difference. Hang in there!!

I’m doing great , I lost 26 lbs the first two weeks and everyone is telling me they see a difference. I walk 5 miles every day . Just this week has been tough cuz it seemed so easy the first two weeks.

Just chiming in with a "hi, I also stalled" reassurance. I think it was around the end of week two/beginning of week 3. I'm near the end of week 4 and seeing losses again. Not the crazy ones like during the liquid diet, but multiple ounces most days, at least.

And like @JennieJuniper said: often when the scale doesn't move, inches do.

As long as we stay on plan, we'll get there! 👍👍

Wohoo!!! Good luck!

I made it. I'm 3 days post-op and trying to figure it out. No pain but for some reason I feel like I'm starving and that scares me ... maybe my brain and body haven't connected all of the dots. Strange.

I’m so glad you’re doing well! I’m just starting to eat soft foods. I noticed I never felt full with the shakes. I felt satisfied which is a feeling I wasn’t used to. I was used to feeling stuffed! One day at a time. It’ll get easier.

      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!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
