Let's hear it!!!

Who all on this board is currently going through a stall / hit a plateau? I am just trying to get an idea of how many there are of us out there that are experiencing this and how long it has lasted for you. I'll start. Surgery Date 1/27 No loss for 1 1/2 weeks I am 3 weeks out. I am so glad that I have this board here to see what you guys are experiencing. If you weren't here I think that I would be freaking out. Thanks y'all.

Hey there! You are not alone!! Surgery Date 1/11/06 No loss for about 2 weeks I am 5 weeks out I could not agree with you more about the board!! This has been such a help and resource for me!! Hope we break this stall soon!! Have a great day! ~amber~

I am... I *think* I may have finally broke it though... going to wait and see. Scales can be tricky sometimes Sugery Date 12/27 No loss for 4 weeks I was out a little over 3 weeks when it started

I had RNY 1/4 . I stalled at about 5 weeks. I will not get back on a scale for awhile because I find my self getting frustrated and discouraged. I am going to stick to the plan and keep a possitive attitude. i will weigh at my next appointment on Tuesday.

Yeah! it's so darn frustrating with that scale that I finally threw it out. I stalled for more than 2,5 weeks when I was 4 weeks out. Now it finally have started moving a little again. But take the advice that every one have given me, throw that scale out!!!!! I now go to my pcp every Monday and weigh on their scale. hang in there, the stall will come to an end Magdalena

I'm not actually at a stall as of yet, but I fear that I am going to be soon. My weight loss progression has slowed quite a bit. I lost 20 lbs. in the first 2 weeks and then in the third week I only lost 5. I am assuming that I will lose less than 5 in the next week and then maybe have a stall. I think it is something we all have to accept and deal with. Whatever we do, we can't get down on ourselves. Emily

Emily, Your picture does not show up for us. Is it showing up for you at home?

Nope, I have no idea how to make it show up. Anyone know how to tell me? Appreciate any help as my photo shows on my profile. Emily

I'm not sure how long my stall was because I refused to step on the scale. All I know is that I lost 22 pounds the first 2 weeks then only 9 the second two weeks. I am happy to say though that I got my monthly friend and lost 3 more pounds in 1 day!! Dawn

I had surgery 1/23; lost 20 lbs first two weeks; stalled for almost a week but have lost another 5lbs now if my scales are accurate - go to see dr. next wed. and will know for sure. Sylvia
