    The three week stall I think is normal. Even if you aren't losing on the scale I bet you are still losing inches. I am almost 4 weeks out and have been extremely dizzy as well. Possibly maybe related to low blood pressure or low blood sugar? I wish this phase would pass. You're not alone!

    I had horrible pain as well. It was a tough first couple weeks. I was sleeved on 10/28. I have a friend who had no pain at all, so I was really surprised how bad it hurt and I am a RN. Everyone's experiences are totally different. I have a challenge getting all my fluids and Protein in still. Just keep going. They best advice I could give you is to walk. I know it hurts like hell to get up and get started but walking really helps with the recovery process. That's all I did at first is walk drink and take pain meds. Also when you get home you may prefer a recliner. I slept on my recliner for several days after surgery. Good luck!! You are not alone.
