Increase water intake and you said yourself today was your first walk. exercise helps. Have patience this is a new beginning for you and you are doing great. Hang in there .If you have any more question just ask hope I was helpful . I'm almost 3mo. post-op I call my dietician with questions I have that's what they are there for.

Google "three week stall." Everyone goes through it. My advice is to stay off of the scale for at least the first month post-op. Your body is desperately trying to heal, and weight loss isn't the top priority.

And get used to stalls. I have found that I am in a stall more often than a period of loss post-op. It's just part of the process.

Good luck!
