Had surgery one week ago. Scale hasn't moved in four days. Really weird. Am now on the soft food Stage IV diet after yesterday. Got 70+ g of protein in yesterday, got 60+ oz of water in. Every day, I've been following the script to the letter.

I read about stalls, and I know that people say not to worry, but it's weird. Anyone else encounter one already like this?

I bet your body is still swollen and you still have all the gunk left over from surgery..... continue to follow the script - I bet you will see it soon!

So, now not only am I not losing, but I'm UP two!!!!! I think I ate 600 calories yesterday. What?!?!?!?

Day 10 post-op, day 7 of completely stalled weight loss. Getting all my protein in (70-80g daily) as well as fluids (64+ oz of water).

My surgeon said that the first month is about healing, not losing. Still I can certainly understand your confusion and frustration. What kind of foods are you eating?

My "meals" are 2 oz of mushy protein 3x a day (yesterday was B - Cottage cheese, L - Baby food, D - Ricotta), and then a protein shake, as well as a small homemade protein pudding for a nighttime snack. In between, fluids all the time (broth, sf jello, water, C Light, etc.).

I was sleeved 1/15 and have actually gained weight!! i understand why this could happen, but its still frustrating!!

I had my surgery 10 days ago and have lost 16 pounds. I have also stalled. Everyone says it is normal while we heal, but I definitely want to see movement! Hang in there Jeff!

Down 25 lbs., one month out. Broke that stall like a bad habit, but thank you!
