Stall? Any advice?

Hi there! I'm approaching my third week and I haven't lost weight in three days. I have heard about a stall on the third week but I'm wondering what I can do about it.

Does anyone have any advice? Did this happen to any of you? Please advise! Thank you! ????

    This is a normal part of the process. Just focus on getting in all your Protein and Water and stay off the scale.

Just hang in there. It's absolutely normal and is to be expected as our bodies adjust. Just stick with the rules and know that it will pass. I was stuck at 210 for almost two weeks just four weeks after surgery. The scale finally started to move again and I'm down another six pounds.

It happens to everyone. Don't panic.

It happens to 99% of us. And it won't be your last stall, either.

Like @@Inner Surfer Girl said, keep getting your fluids and protien, stay off the scale for a while and let it pass. Nothing more you can do at this point.

Now stalls later down the road could be a different story....

Im 38 days out and still stalled from week 2. Eat right and exercise and scale doesnt move. I am staying positive and keep doing what Im doing

How do you define eating right? Are you getting in all your protein and water? What is your protein goal?

I eat no processed food. low carb. Ill have 3 oz of Protein and a scoop of veg. Ill have my Protein shakes. I get in 80-100 gms of protein and get in my 64 oz of liquid. I go to zumba 2 times a week. treadmill and stair climber and yoga or pilates. no weight lifting yet. not cleared. I eat between 900-1000 calories a day.

I'm 2 weeks out and I haven't lost anything for 5ish days now.????????

You're not alone.
