Hello all today I'm 4 weeks post op and I've already hit a stall I've lost 12-14 lbs(it keeps fluctuating) but it's been like that since post op week 2, has anyone else experienced a stall this early? Also I do fine with with eating/drinking during the day and don't have any cravings what so ever, but once night hits im feel like I'm starving and craving everything is this normal? TIA for all the info!

I will be 4 weeks post op Friday and I lost most of my weight the first two weeks after surgery and now nothing I'm not too disappointed because I have to remind myself it's only 4 weeks I have so much more time to go and a lot of people stall but it helps to know the weight is gonna come off even with surgery weight loss doesn't happen over night

I could have written your post! Same exact thing is happening to me. Also I am end of week 4. Lost 20 pounds first two weeks, 2 pounds second week and fourth week....nothing. I am just glad I am not gaining. But it is frustrating. I chalk it up to my body hanging on to every little morsel of food possible.

I'm just at 5 weeks post-op. I stalled for a bit. I haven't been meeting my Fluid or Protein goals for a couple of days, but I've dropped 4 pounds. Trying to do better. Adding more exercise as well...

I stalled for two weeks exactly. Surgery was 7/25 I lost 10lbs at my post op appt on 8/3 and stalled up until this past Monday when my stall broke. What I had to do was up my Water. That is what helped me. I was working out 7 days straight for atleast and hour on treadmill and elliptical and felt that I was about to break if my stall didn't let up. My weight didn't go up it just stayed put at 207. So I knew eventually it would break. I bought fresh lemons bought a new water bottle and added a half of a lemon to my water. Since water flushes fat out of our bodies through urine and feces it is very important to drink up to the 64oz of water and u will most likely see a change then. Water is the key and when I stalled I wasn't getting in enough. As soon as I added more water to my diet the scale started moving again. I lost 2 lbs in 2 days and it's still moving. I'm also still working out.
