2 Weeks Without Any Weight Loss

I had my VSG surgery on Dec. 20, 2011. I have not had any weight loss since the first week. How long does it take to start seeing any significant weight loss? I have only lost 12 pounds since the surgery (16 pounds since I started losing weight), but I was hoping for more. Is anyone else having this issue?

      Your body is adjusting to all of the changes and recovering from surgery. Just be patient and you will see the loss. Most of us have hit a stall here or there. The weight will come off again! Star
