First Stall.....POLL

I think I have finally hit my first stall at 7 weeks out, I have stayed between 242-240 for about 5 days now. I am curious how you all got through your first stall. 1) Waited it out, did nothing different. 2) Ate more protien 3) Ate more in general 4) Ate less 5) None of the above Thanks so much to all *****ply! Karyn

Karyn, I tried increasing my protein like was suggested but I am having a really hard time with the protein drinks so I guess you would say I waited it out. I was about the same time frame as you are when I hit the little stall... but I do believe I lost inches so try to be patient, some of us are slow losers kim

I had my first stall after week one post op. I was stalled for 3 weeks. At that point I increased my protien and water. I have hit a stall again and I am just over 6 weeks out. I am going to try the same thing. Good luck to you! Leeanne

Karyn, I believe I am on my second stall now. I have been at 247 for 13 days now. The first one I waited out mainly because I knew I was doing everything right. Now I'm exercising more and waiting it out. Hang in there this to will pass. Hugs, Cathy

I waited it out. Like some of the others said, I knew I was following the rules and stalls are bound to happen no matter what. I looked at it as a good thing, my skin was having time to shrink. Dawn

good point Dawn, that is so true about the skin having time to shrink, I never thought about that! Thanks! Karyn

Hi Karen.... Sorry about your stall, but I too just had to wait it out. I did make sure to get in as much liquid and protein as I could but honestly, it did not make that much of a difference. Hope your stall breaks soon! ~amber~

I am on my first stall and I am 9 weeks out. I am trying to get more fluids and be faithful about exercise. I am so close to being under 200 I want the scale to move really really bad. Jenn L
