Please someone say it isn't !

3 week stall is very, very real. Can happen at 2 weeks, or 4, but most people see the scale stop moving for a week or two around that time.

AND, it's the first of many!

I'm there now. Scale just jumps around a bit.

Not for me! It was real, didn't lose for about 3 weeks, actually gained a little. But it passed!

I drastically slowed down around week 4 and I will hit week 6 in a couple of days. People say I'm still losing, but the scale doesn't (clothes are fitting better - strange). I did get off my diuretic for blood pressure, which people say adds water weight fairly quick. I'm sure there are a number of factors involved but we just need to keep on keeping on and trust the "system". It's hard - I'm dealing with it now but it's just a few weeks of stalling compared to years of gaining! Keep up the good work!!

Yup at 3 weeks I stalled and gained 12 pounds!! I was freaking out! But two weeks later I lost the weight plus more...

I am just about 6 weeks out and I haven't lost anything in 3 weeks. Its really frustrating, but I have read on here so many people go through this, so I am waiting a few more weeks before I totally freak out:)

I'm having no problems losing weight I'm about 6 weeks post op and have lost almost 47lbs

I hit the 3 week stall and didn't lose anything for 8 days. very frustrating, but it started again thank goodness. No myth for me

Glad I found this topic. I am on week three now and for the last few days haven't lost a darn thing. Was starting to worry but I guess it is so ! Time to move around a bit more and kick start my body back into losing weight !!

I am with ya'll...in the 3rd week now and scale hasn't moved. Glad I heard about the 3 week stall cuz I was freaking out....lol
Not going to stress, just staying focused.
I am happy with my 14lbs loss since surgery 7-21.
I wish I would have taken body measurements because the inches are definitely falling off.!!
