Hey everyone.. This is my first post. I was reluctant to join a forum, but I have an issue I've been wondering about. I'm about 5 weeks post op from my VSG. I'm a 24 year old female. At the time of surgery I weighed 485 pounds. My first week post op, I lost 20 pounds. My surgeon and NUT told me that because of my weight and age I would expect to lose a lot pretty fast the first month. The problem is I havent lost anything since. It's been 3 weeks with no weight loss. Not even a pound I've heard tons of people talk about the "3rd week stall", but this is just crazy. I've been eating very small, healthy portions. Drinking my Protein shakes. Exercising 6 days a week. I called my Dr. to see what could be going on, but he gave no answer. He gave me an appointment two weeks from now (I have a busy sched). But for the next two weeks I'm gonna drive myself crazy wanting to know whats up. Has anyone ever experienced a 2,3,4,5 week stall? Or does anyone know what could possibly be wrong? Thanks so much in advance for any answers. I appreciate it so much.
