I am 2 and a half weeks post op and haven't seen the scale move in about a 5 days.. Majority of my initial weight loss was in the first week 13lbs then 4lbs and now a stand still (I'm trying not to stalk the scale) How do i over come this plateau? I've tried walking more but it is still painful.. Feels good while walking but once I stop and rest my ribs/where my bigger incisions are hurt bad for a day or 2.. Just started mushy food 3 days ago so I'm adding to my calorie intake and its hard to walk it off but I do move around as much as possible.... Any suggestions?

You will start losing again. Just keep doing what you are doing. I had a 5 day stall during week 2 and then went right back to losing. Your body is still healing.

Thank you

I am sort of in the same boat 15 days out and the scale stopped moving 5 days ago. trying to do everything right, has rained for the past week so no walking. I really thought it would be a steady loss. hanging in there, but wanted more!! food tastes funny, struggling to get enough Protein

They have flavorless protein that you can mix in with your food tho help you get enough.. Stay focused and positive from what I've read it happens to everyone and it will pick back up.

Yes, my suggestion is to stay off of the scale. Also, walking is important and should be done but not at the expense of causing pain for a day or two afterwards.

Take it easy and just focus on Protein and hydration. Oh, and stay off of the scale. =)

Thank you will do... How would you recommend walking like 5-10 minute intervals? Are there any other exercises i can do?

I had a stall from week 3 until 5 then lost almost 10 pounds in a week. I didn't do anything different other than quit stepping on the scale everyday. I only weigh once a week.

Definitely staying off the scale... I have lost inches which is exciting

I am in the same boat...scale goes up and down1-2 lbs. WTH???? I have lost but been in and out of 2 major stall in 6 weeks
