[quote=Anonymous]Just wondering if anyone had experienced this. I peloton so that's how I measure this just for context. I have lost almost 40 pounds in the last 15 months. I started working out about a year ago and got the peloton in late October. The first few months on the bike I was making really good steady gains and losing about 3 pounds a month. In like February of this year I feel like my weight loss progress slowed a bit but didn't stop, mostly due to holiday eating and a (COVID safe) weekend away in February. I am losing slowly so an 'off' weekend where I gain a pound kind of creates a monthlong stall. Anyway, about two months ago I had to have minor surgery and it took me about 5 weeks to get back to my previous PRs on peloton.

In the past week though, I feel like my recovery has totally kicked in because I am SMASHING through my April PRs. Like clear enormous improvement. And it was a HARD month of slogging through getting back to fighting shape.

But now my weight loss has totally stalled out. I am basically one pound down since mid April and feel like I have just stopped losing.

Is there something that could be happening where my muscles being built back up slowed me down? Trying not to get discouraged. I have another 20 pounds to go to get to where I think I'd be TOTALLY HAPPY. 25 to get to a 'normal' weight. [/quote]
