Stalls are a normal, natural, and necessary part of the process of losing a significant amount of weight. Everyone stalls and almost everyone stalls about three weeks after surgery. You are right on schedule.

Just follow your program.

Focus on getting in all of your Protein and fluids.

Stay off the scale.

And, embrace the stall!

I was sleeved on March 21st as well. I too have stalled and it's very frustrating. But it is part of the process so there will be a light at the end of the tunnel. I hope.

In a way I'm happy to see that I'm not the only one. How much are you eating at once? (I'm eating 2oz 3 times a day)

I'm about 4 to 6 times a day. Definitely not more than that and definitely not more than 2 ounces. My huge problem is that I've always been a fast eater. I still am and boy when that pain hits in the middle of my chest I'm reminded to stop eating so fast.

How much have you lost?

I am only 13 days out and have stalled the last 3 days. I lost 11 pounds the first 10 days, and then nothing since. I am so frustrated! I was expecting this at 3 weeks out, but not this early!

I'm with you...March 23rd surgery so I just hit 4 weeks yesterday...and I'm stuck at 14 lbs. My body has never wanted to let go of weight and I guess that's just continuing. I'm eating about 600-800 calories a day and sticking to what I'm supposed to be doing. Need to get moving more I guess but I'm just exhausted. We will get there!!!

I was stuck at 12 lbs for the past 3 weeks and a half and today I saw that I'm at 15lbs finally

If it makes you feel any better - I stalled like Inner Surfer Girl said around day 15 and for a good amount of time. But then magically a few weeks later when i weighed I had lost a good amount of weight and have continued to (we shall see at the next weigh in) but everyone is different and have different starting weights so weight comes off faster and slower - So as everyone said - probably best to avoid the scale if it will impact your motivation and/or mood. i know it impacted mine :)

I keep saying I'll do it weekly but then it just stares at me in the morning and I give in :)
