I hear so many people on here talking about stalling. I do not weigh everyday I only weigh on Tuesday mornings because I had my preop apt on Tuesday the 22 of March and my surgery on the 23rd. I have not had a stall at all and I am very happy about that but I think it is due to not weighing everyday that I see the scales move. Sometimes it is only 1 lb and some times more. I will take what I get. I don't think you are going to gain going to solid foods because you are not eating that many calories. I wish you the best.

I think most of us stop losing weight at three weeks and three months. Your body needs time to catch up with the rapidity of the loss and takes a little health break. You will find it does this along the way (for most) and should get your head ready for it.

Ready for it? Measure yourself, take pictures and think of the weight loss as a byproduct for what you had the surgery for: good health.

Remember: this is a marathon, not a sprint and it sounds completely normal to me.

Everyone, at least so far, who has posted something out here around week 3 or 4 say the weight has stopped coming off or they gained a couple pounds. I stalled at 4 weeks for over 2 weeks and was mad because the first 3 week I lost 28 lbs. I am now 4 months out and have experienced 2 more stalls, this last one lasting 2 1/2 weeks.

All you can do is remember it took you a long time to put the weight on. You will continue to lose, but your body has to catch up with the loss as you go through them.

Then you gain muscle as you work out and the scale will not more. Make sure to measure yourself because the one thing you will notice during these times, is your body is getting smaller.

The inches going down will keep you going through those periods when the weight does not seem to be moving. I had to learn how not to get frustrated with myself or the universe :)

Same here - been stalled since two and a half to three weeks - but I think part of it is that I've really stepped up my walking because I'm feeling better, thus probably building muscle in some places, possibly losing inches in others. I'm just so glad I'm part of this group because it made me aware of this potential stall and I'm not freaking out about it. I'm only eating six ounces of food per day - the weight is going to come off again!

I knew I would stall at some point, I guess I wasn't prepared for it to be so soon. I guess 3-4 weeks is about right. I need to step up my game with exercise!

Most days, I'm doing 2 protein shakes a day and 3 small "meals", and I eat about 1/4 - 1/2 cup per meal depending on what it is. Sometimes it takes me 30 minutes to eat, but sometimes it takes me an hour. Today (so far) I have had 1 scrambled egg and about 2.5 oz of plain chicken salad. I'm going to try and get my 60g of protein without a shake...but we'll see. I'm getting kind of tired of them.
