Hey! I had sleeve on 3/30/12.. I have lost 36 lbs in the first 14 days, but the last 3 days I am staying at same weight. Is this a common occurrence? If so how long does this last?.. its frustrating when i was doing so well to just stall out..thanks for the comments

    Have you searched the site about stalls? It is quite normal and common. Your body is going through a major adjustment. Just keep doing what you are doing. Don't get discouraged and don't weigh yourself very often. Once a week at a minimum. Best if every two weeks.

    PdxMan is right... also, take your measurements. Sometimes you may be losing inches even when the scale doesn't move. Stop watching the scale!
