cutiepie34 3 Posted May 20, 2019 I had my sleeve April 19th, the first 2 weeks I was losing weight but after the second week I have just stopped losing. The scale stopped moving up or down. It's been the same for 2 weeks now. I'm eating the right foods, walking and doing as much as I can on my side. Has this happened to anyone? I'm feeling confused and have moments of regret since I still have pain from time to time. Sent from my SM-N950U using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CyndieRI 251 Posted May 20, 2019 This absolutely happened to me! I was stalled for 3 weeks - then lost 10 lbs in one week. Don’t stress - your weight loss will start again! I know it’s easy for me to say but at the time I was freaked out too! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TracyS 62 Posted May 20, 2019 I am in my 2nd month as had my operation on April 3. I have stalled twice. First time 9 days and this time for a week. So it is frustrating. I am going to add more shakes and less food today. See if I can jumpstart this again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
catwoman7 11,220 Posted May 20, 2019 pretty much everyone has their first stall sometime during the first month after surgery, so yes - that's normal. I stalled weeks 2 and 3. My weight loss started up again during week 4, and I dropped like 6-8 lbs practically overnight. 1 1 sillykitty and mommy_vsg reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GradyCat 3,695 Posted May 20, 2019 It's perfectly normal. Most people stall around Week 4, but it's possible, every body is different to stall at Week 2. Your body just went through a major trauma, so it's adjusting and learning about the new you. Stalls are inevitable and part of the WLS process. 1 sillykitty reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Boldilocks 312 Posted May 21, 2019 Yep! I stalled on Day 12 after surgery, and stayed in that stall for a week and a half. Not fun - but a reminder that just because your body should do something, doesn't mean it will. I mean, there;s no earthly way your body should not be losing weight on 500 calories a day - but there it was. Just strap yourself in - it's going to be a long and eventful journey!
