First Stall!

So I've read so much about the 3-4 week post-op stall, and foolishly I didn't think it would happen to me! Haha. I lost 32 pounds over the first three weeks and today was weighed at my doctor's and I've GAINED a pound. I was crushed. I know that it's normal especially since I began solid food a few days ago, and will resolve itself, but I guess I'd like to hear some experiences - how long was your stall and when did it/they occur? Did you do anything in particular to get out of it? Thanks!

I think we all go through it i know i did and now i have lost 40 pounds now and i just had my 2 month anniversary but the good side is check your inches i lost 10 just in my waist. Keep up the good work and you will acheive your goal.

Mine lasted 9 days and hopefully broke today (down a pound). Dang, I didn't like it much but I was losing inches like crazy. Thankfully I'd read enough to prepare and control my dissapointment. So I know the sleeve will work, this is a journey, and we just have to be patient. Hang in there.

I have stalled a few times - at 2 1/2 weeks I stalled for 2 weeks and right now I am 11 weeks and I've been stalled for a week and a half. I wish I had measured because I'm hoping I'm losing inches but I want to see movement on the scale!!! Good luck - it will pass.

Stalls are normal. Don't stress about it. 32 pounds in three weeks is awesome! My weight loss would stall here and there, but at the end of each month, I have always walked away with a loss. If you are following the rules, you will continue to lose. You really are doing great.
