      Oh that's so frustrating! BUT it's also totally normal. Am I correct that you're about a month post-op? A 1-week stall is heartbreaking, but part of your body readjusting. None of that mumbo-jumbo about your body changing it's caloric usage due to 'newness' or anything, just redistributing how those calories are put to use. You may well be building some muscle and thus the fat loss doesn't register. Or your liver has finished it's massive post-op shrinkage (or is even rebounding slightly) causing the fat loss to be 'balanced out.' Or maybe it's about water - I'm guessing at this point you're better able to drink than you were right after surgery. Your body thus is better hydrated, has a higher water % and thus the scale won't move even as fat is metabolized. Keep the faith, and when in doubt, post here AND talk to your NUT.
