Hi everyone! I was sleeved on Dec 16th and have lost a total of 26lbs since the pre-op diet. However, I haven't lost any weight in the past three days. Week 3 starts tomorrow. Help!

Congrats on the recent sleeve! Don't worry, it's very typical to have a stall the third week after surgery, and you'll see more stalls as well further on. It's your body readjusting and replenishing things and then the stall will break and you'll drop again. It's sort of a stair step pattern with a lot of people, not always down. :).

3 days is not a stall.. But when you hit a stall (it can last 1 to three weeks) it is a completely normal thing, weight loss (even with surgery) is not a predictable pound a day loss process.

As long as the overall monthly trend is down, that all that matters.

If you do a search here under "stall" you will see a million and one threads about it.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
