Stalling already?

I've heard about the infamous 3rd week stall, but I've been stalled since Day 6! I'm 17 days post op. I dropped 9 pounds in the first 6 days and since then the scale hasn't budged. I'm meeting my Protein and liquid goals. Any suggestions on getting this going?

If you are following your plan that is all you can do. Stay off the scale for at least a couple of weeks and keep doing what you are supposed to . . . the weight loss will pick up again, I promise, but you can't force it and there is no use stressing yourself out over it. Good luck!

I'm 5 weeks post op and I did the exact same thing! I lost 9 pounds in a week and then stalled for 9 days. After that, I started losing a pound a day. Be patient. Your body is adjusting to your new way of life and needs to realize it's not starving before letting go of the extra fat. [emoji3]

I'm exactly the same, 9 pounds first 4 days then nothing...I'm on day 19...grrrrrr! I've read it, I know I have to be patient, but it's really frustrating!
