catwoman7 11,220 Posted December 22, 2019 You're doing great! Just stick to your plan - the stall will break eventually. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
karky101 2 Posted December 22, 2019 Your going well. I have lost a bit over double that but must of been alot heavier to start with. I got my sleeve done on July 17. I do find when i stall on the scales I seem to be dropping shirt and pants sizes quicker then when the scales say I'm losing weightSent from my SM-G965F using BariatricPal mobile app 2 vdbarbie and Lynda486 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So are age, gender, metabolic rate, activity level, whether or not you lost a lot of weight prior to surgery, etc. That's why it's sort of pointless for people to compare themselves to other. People are all over the board with this depending on so many things... 2 vdbarbie and HappyHikerGal reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NancyLF 234 Posted December 22, 2019 My surgery was 5 months ago today. I hit a stall at the 3 month mark, that lasted 3 weeks when the scale didn't move at all. However, I notices other changes- mostly in my clothes. Articles that were once a little snug on my arms, weren't. A shirt that didn't fit quite right, now looked good! I did some shopping last month & found I went from a 3X to a 2X or even a 1X, depending on the make. Pants, were 3X - now I was able to fit in a 20! I haven't worn a number that didn't have an "X" beside it in YEARS!! I found 5 pairs of pants in my closet that USED to be too small. They fit now! It's like having a new wardrobe without spending more $$$!! LOL! Don't let the stall get you down. There's other things going on that you'll notice in time. In the meantime - Keep on keepin on! You look great! 2 vdbarbie and Lynda486 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
