  • It's amazing that it seems like just about everyone has a 3 week stall. Mine lasted about a week. I tried getting more fluids but I am not sure it matters. I think it's your body chemistry adjustin

It's amazing that it seems like just about everyone has a 3 week stall. Mine lasted about a week. I tried getting more fluids but I am not sure it matters. I think it's your body chemistry adjusting after the surgery...just my thoughts. I started losing again in the 4th week. Don't worry too much about it!

Thanks I will try.. It's just :( and I'm hoping my lady friend is adding to it.. But I don't know if that's s myth or not

week 2 I weighed 276

week 3 I weighed 282

I am now at the end of week 4 and I'm 280- still four pounds higher than week 2!

I'm not worried. March was a huge month for me so I expect April is going to be bad.

I lost weight my first and second week after surgery but then began to gain weight and was very upset. But I waited it out and you know what happened? I got my period! I was not expecting it as I have not had one in over a year (PCOS and weight related, I'm 26 years old) and then I lost that weight after my period was over.

You're dead right. There isn't much we can do about it except persevere. There is a link in my sig that talks about the inevitable stall. It explains why it happens. But there is no denying, it is just part of the package deal.

Thanks I found out today in my 3rd week that I did not loose anything this week. Week one and two lose 15lbs.
