I think my first big stall was around 65 pounds. But then, I have see many stalls in the last year. One stall lasted about 8 wekks. They are a part of the program, and you cannot let it get to you. Just stay the course. I have tried different things to try and break a stall. I swear a couple of times my stall was ended by a big cheat, and then back to induction. (By Big cheat, I mean a big pasta meal with bread. Not a bag of chips,pop and cookies).
However with cheats, you will need to fight the renewed cravings for a few days. My last two stalls were broke by reducing my cal intake down to 1000 for a day or two, then resume back to eating what I want at 20-30 carbs. This is probably a no-no, but it worked.
I think everyone stalls here and there. Just have to think long term! That's why I set weigh goals, but never a date.
