My weight loss has stalled for the last week and a half. I am 12 weeks post op from sleeve. Is this normal and has anyone else had the same issue? If so, any suggestions how to kick start it.

Almost EVERYONE has a major stall at three months. I'm two months out and already had bunches of mini-stalls so I am not looking forward to a major one at three months. From what I've read here, stick with your plan and it WILL resolve itself. Hopefully some of the veterans will post and give you some pointers!

Absolutely normal. Nearly EVERYONE gets the dreaded 4 week stall, so you got lucky and didn't get it until 12 weeks. It's nothing you're doing wrong. It's just your body needing time to adjust. Stay with the program and you'll be fine.

Stalls are normal and they’ll happen lol along your journey. They can last for a week, two, three or more. shake things up a bit. Some find intermittent fasting will break it, others increase their intake.

Think of them as your body just trying to catch up with your weight loss & new eating & activity habits. It’s just your body wanting breathing space.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
