Ok. Question. I had my surgery oct 8 2015 I was 316 before surgery went down 295 day of surgery now I'm 272. But I can't seem to get below 272 I weigh my foods like 3oz fish sometimes less and about 1oz of salad and that's it. I start physical therapy next week. Don't know.

Sounds like the famous "3 week stall"...

Yes, I can see that you're not exactly 3 weeks out but you're pretty close...

There are plenty of posts and articles around with information on this...

I think there's one titled "Embrace the Stall" or something similar...

Maybe that has some information you can use...

Physical therapy may re-start things for you too...

It sounds like you are doing great. What you are experiencing is very normal.

Just focus on getting in all of your Protein and fluids. And taking your Vitamins and supplements as directed and you will be fine.

If the numbers in the scale Erie you crazy, then consider weighing infrequently, or not at all (you will be weighed at your follow-up appointments).

Here is the post that was referenced above.

Embrace the Stall!

Stalls are normal so try not to stress about it. You are doing great!

All good.. be patient. It will come... this stall for me lasted 2 1/2 weeks and it felt so long. Just keep doing what your are doing... all will come. Now is great time to weigh yourself one day a week instead of every day... Or maybe twice a week (same day, same time, same clothes).

Echoing what everyone else has said. My stall lasted 2 weeks. I just kept plugging and I'm headed downward again.

I really do think that our bodies go through a "WTF??" moment. It will get with the program. One of the things you want to keep track of is non-scale victories (NSV). You may not notice the scale moving, but pay attention to things like how your clothing fits, how you feel when you're walking, etc. That will help.
