4 weeks post op. No weight loss for 2 weeks :(

I know this topic has probably been discussed a million times but I am currently 4 weeks out since surgery. At my 2 week post op I was down an unbelievable 31 lbs. I haven't budged since. It's so discouraging to go through all that and stall out after 2 weeks. I'm exercising and getting in my water and protein. I'm at a loss of what to do. I just need to know its normal. I'm scared to go to my next apt in a couple weeks with no change. It will make me feel like a failure. Anybody else go through this?!

I was right there too. I went into a stall at the end of week 2 and didn't break it until the beginning of week 4. Very, very frustrating. But it'll break. My stall was more mental than anything. Just read the other posts out there. Stay on track. Keep moving. It'll break soon. I feel ya! I did finally measure myself at 1 month and it was shocking. That might help offset the disappointment of scale not moving. Hard to believe we can stall eating 509-600 calories a day isn't it!?!?

And in case your misery loves my company, I'm on a month-long stall. In fact, I've gained and lost (and gained) the same 3 pounds for the entire month. Frustrating, but I know it will break......eventually.
