Stall at week 3 already?

Hi all,

Is it possible to stall at week 3?

I've been weighing the same for over a week now and I just had my rny on may 20th.

Isn't it too soon to be stalling?

Nope. You're right on schedule.

Google or search this forum for " 3 week stall" and you will find literally hundreds of questions and answers about it. 99% of is have gone through it and continued on to lose weight.

You're not doing anything wrong. Just stay the course and it will pass.

Tomorrow I'll be 3 weeks and for the last few days I've been gaining and losing the same 1-3lbs... I am so glad I read about the stall here because I'm mentally prepared to handle it. If I hadn't I would do what I normally do and give up. It sucks since I am only down about 14lbs since surgery BUT that's 14 less than before and hopefully the scale moves soon but if not I see changes so I'm hanging in there. Just wait it will move eventually and search the topic for lots of tips and resources


almost everyone experiences that. In fact, we have an official name for it - "the three-week stall". If you do a search on it, you'll probably find thousands of threads on it

Thank you!
I tend to freak out easily, I must admit.

Thank you! I feel much better now. I've been stressing over this that I didn't feel like eating because I didn't want to put on weight but then I remembered that this is the reason I'm here now. [emoji27]
