3 months

I'm about to be 3 months post op and have lost 45 lbs. I'm very happy with my weight loss but I've hit my second stall. I'm already going on 2 weeks without losing. Is this normal at this point?

Yes, this is normal. Don't worry about the stalls because you can stall for 2 to 3 weeks and then all of a sudden you will drop 10lbs. It can be discouraging but just stay consistent with getting your proteins and water in and you will start to see the scale move again!

I am sitting at 3 1/2 months and OMG yes stalls happen... right now im struggling to hit a major milestone and am fustrated because im only loosing ounces instead of pounds... big differance that is affecting me is water weight... its getting warm outside here so im drinking way more water and unsweet tea then i have so far.. .the water weight is slowling me down but im sure my body will get back into the groove as soon as it balances out. Hang in there!

What about a stall the 2nd week after surgery? I've been working to get my protein requirements, not always hitting them. Might have been a bit low on fluids earlier in the week, but I've fixed that now. And I've been at the same weight for 5 days now!
