How Long Was YOUR Longest Stall?
I'm gonna be the party pooper and tell you I have only lost 10lbs in 4 months. I am 8 months from my revision to DS. I am at the same weight I stalled at with my RNY after losing 70lbs and then regained all that I had lost, so obviously my body likes being 240lbs. I just had a hernia repair1 week ago and am starting to feel my pants looser, but I've been fooled before. So, I don't want to hear any whining.
- Hello! I am six years out DS. My HW 423 SW 350 CW 195.
- my longest stall was about 3 years. I lost the first 100 pounds quickly and then I slacked on my DS eating. I fluctuated for years between 210 and 240.
- I took a field position in January 2018 that required me to be very mobile. Walking, climbing stairs etc. I also started paying attention to my diet and increasing my water and vitamins.
- Basically I got back on the program.
- Since January 2018 I went from 240-195.
I don't have an answer ... but I'm about a month further out than you, and I'm in the same boat. Except my stall point is 235. I spent several years at 235-240, so it may be some stupid "set point" that my body feels comfortable at. But I also know I'm eating more. After my 100g of protein a day, I eat pretty much what I want. I just can't go low carb. I can go moderate healthy carb without too much effort, but low carb is just like every other diet that I couldn't do before.
So far in May, I've only lost 2 lbs. I hope that once the weather warms up, I'll be busy working outside, and getting lots of exercise. I guess time will tell if at 5 months this is "it" or not!
Try not to stress too much about it. :)
