When did you hit your 1st stall?

I stalled at three weeks for eight days, then six weeks for ten days. My weight loss is averaging about 12 lbs per month right now, and I can't argue with that. I try to up my exercise and protein and zig zag my calories when I hit a stall.

Week #2, I didn't lose an ounce. I hit some stalls along the way that lasted about 3 weeks. I ended up losing 185 pounds though, so hang in there, they don't last forever. :)

Hit stall at week 3. It lasted a few weeks with me going up and down 3 pounds. Broke when I uped my protein.

Three weeks post-op. I didn;t do anything because my surgeon told me it would happen and that there was nothing that I *could* do... my body needed time to regoup and the weight loss would restart all on it's own. Just be patient. Your body has been through A LOT and does not need you trying to force it to do something it is not ready to do.

Well this post was a tad bit depressing seeing that I am currently in Week 3.  Oh well, I'll keep my chin up, even if I hit this infamous stall!

I am at 4.5 months and have lost maybe 5# for the month.  Seems that the entire month has been in a stall and wonder if I'll get passed it but I know I'm doing all the right things so will just have to be patient and wait it out....

Hang in there...

SIX WEEKS! And I not only stalled - but I GAINED 6 lbs! WHAT??!? 

I write EVERYTHING I eat, exercise, get my protein, vitamins, and water in - and I GAINED 6 lbs??! Anywho... I just kept plugging along... now at just about 9 weeks post-op, I lost those 6 and I'm down another 4. So - don't get frustrated. It DOES happen. Re-evaluate what you're doing - make sure you're doing what you'r supposed to. If you are - just hang in there! Your body is just adjusting. If you're not, make some changes - and step it up a bit!

Wow...I was wondering the same thing....dropped 17 in 2 weeks and now just hanging.....Glad to hear this is a "normal" event. Will keep plugging away.

I stalled at week 3 and did not lose for 5 weeks , i think I am in a stall again.
