Absolutely normal, stalls come and go. I am about three months out, and am down around 90 lbs, 10 lbs to my goal weight of 175. I miss those days where I lost a pound a day, but now it's anywhere from 1-3 lbs a week.

Yes it's normal and it will happen often o don't get frustrated.

Normal and you will have many stalls along the way. Just stay on track and dont get complacent about the "rules" ypur surgeon has provided.

Enjoy the first year, it becomes harder to lose as time goes on; your hunger will increase and you will be able to consume more food.

Completely normal. I'm 6 weeks out, and I hovered for 10 days. Then resumed the decline.

MD told me "don't weigh yourself every day". But, I enjoy the small victories as well as the big ones.

Best of luck!
