I lost 25 pounds in the first 2 weeks and now I haven't lost in 2 weeks what's wrong??

I'm still pre-op but I've been on here reading for about a year. It seems to be very common to lose quickly for a couple weeks and then stall for a bit right after surgery - your body is healing and is like "what's going on??" Give it time, keep doing what your surgeon recommends, and don't get discouraged! The weight loss will start up again.

If you search "Week three stall" I bet you'll find a lot of posts with people facing the same thing you are, at the same point.

I agree with SarahSleeve. I am 14 weeks post op and have had a few stalls. My first stall was after 2 weeks post op and I didn't lose anything for 2 weeks.

It happens to just about everyone at some point.

Thank you! Ill look up those other posts!

That is a LOT of weight to lose the 1st 2 weeks!! Better than average by far! I would not worry about it. Your body is still wondering...WTH??

I am with you! I lost 16 lbs in first 8 days and then nothing in last 6 days. Frustrating but we will see a drop again soon!

I was in the same boat. I lost 34 pounds in three weeks, then nothing for four weeks. FOUR WEEKS! This was very frustrating to me in the moment, but then I remind myself that 34 pounds is a lot to lose in the first month, heck, two months, let alone three weeks, and then I'm okay with it, knowing I'm still on track. One thing j had to do was up my liquid intake, which is still a major struggle, as well as upping my carb intake or calorie intake. I did both at the same time, so I'm not sure if it was one or the other or both that has helped.
