Stop freaking out :)

Weigh yourself weekly or less. You will lose. Your body just needs time to figure out what the heck you did to it.

Irs ok, iam 8wks out and Im struggling with getting in my water. I do 2boiled eggs & string cheese =20gr BK , tuna on cheese=25gr LU, then baked salmon & gr geans=17gr DR. Total ptotein for the day 62gr. No shakes! Hang in there!

I had a 2 week stall on the scale, but I could feel my body changing shape. Pants were all getting bigger, and I was still getting smaller, even though the scale wasn't moving. I actually had to put my scale away and only get it out once a week! I was becoming obsessed with the fact that it wasn't moving. It has started moving downward again though, and it will for you too. As NMJG said, your body is saying "WTH happened here"? :)

Stalls happen, maybe up your protein or excercise.

I had a stall after one week too. I am almost 4 weeks out and am only down 14 pounds since surgery. But I hear if we lose it slow, it will be better for us in the long run. I was disappointed also but I figure if I can average 8-10 pounds a month, in time, it will all come off eventually.
