Hello everyone! Tomorrow will be 3 weeks post op. I'm following my diet as instructed. I also started exercising. Seems I've hit a stall? Could this happen so soon? By no means am I complaining, I've never lost weight this fast in my life. Just seems that my clothes are falling off and I can see the weight loss. Just wondering why I'm not seeing the scale move. I've been stuck at this weight for almost a week. Thanks !

3 weeks out is very common. Be patient. Your body is readjusting itself. The scale will start moving again soon. :D

I'm right there with you! Tomorrow will start week 3 and I've been the same weight all of week 2. Yet, I feel like I've lost inches. I understand this is expected during this time, so I'll just keep on doing what I'm supposed to. You're not alone! :)

I stalled at 3weeks also. I think a lot of people do. It's your body's way of trying to hang on. But eventually it will let go of the weight. Don't stress just keep moving forwards

Same thing happened to me. Now I'm one month tomorrow and started losing again this weekend. I think our bodies hang on and I'm eating about 400 calories a day so it will keep moving off. It's hard to be patient. My SW was 205 now I'm 183

I stalled week 3 too. Weight started coming off again last weekend. And I'm 4 weeks post op today!! 34lbs gone from pre op to now. I've lost almost 6lb a week. Amazing. Never lost this much weight without starving myself. Happy me!

I stalled at 3 1/2 weeks with a measly 12 pound loss and the scale has not moved in over a month!! I'm doing everything I'm supposed to..protein..water..etc :-( the only thing keeping me sane is I AM losing inches..I am swimming in some of my tops :-) hang in there..keep reading positive posts!

I'm stalled at three weeks also. It seems pretty standard with everyone so far. So long as we keep to our plans I'm positive we will all be moving along again. Hell, I've never lost 22 lbs so quick in my life so I'll be patient...... Kinda

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
