I stalled at 3 weeks as well. Even gained back 5 pounds. I was probably not hydrated enough and when I finally got the liquid in I gained the 5 lbs. 5 lbs is a little over 1/2 a gallon of Water. Not a lot considering the total volume of someone who weighs 347lbs. There is no way you lost 30lbs of fat since March 22nd. Much of that is water. Now that you lost the water the fat is a lot harder to come off.

Hey...first time poster.

I was sleeved on 3/26 at 446 pounds and on my first check up on 4/4 i was 425 for a total of 21 pounds in ten days. My PCP seemed every impressed with amount of weight loss in that short of time. I was however told that the weight loss will slow down when I start on soft foods which makes sense. I am on day two of soft foods and I counted my calories today and I have consumed 1300 for the day. I think is about double of what what I was consuming when I was on liquids. So I expect to stall at this point or at least slow down.

Good Luck!

My dr wants me to stay at 600-800 cal per day for at least a year so you may want to watch your calorie intake. I am a process operator at a plant and tried on my nomex yesterday for the first time since surgery and oh my gosh!!! A big big difference. A lot so in my belly. I have had two babies in two years and swore my stomach had a lot of Fluid retained and now my husband finally believes me! Lol still weighing everyday even though y'all said not to! scale is it 272.8!!! Stall seems to be easing up. I'm ready to be skinny!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
