Literally thousands of people. You're not unusual. Stick to your plan, don't worry about the scale.

I was just worried as I have been reading a lot that people average weight loss 4 weeks post op is a around 30lb was thinking that I was maybe doing something wrong

Nope. You're not doing anything wrong. You're having a very normal experience. 16 pounds in three weeks for someone your weight is excellent.

Again. Don't worry about the scale. Stick to your plan. Do some walking. You're on your way. Be happy:)

No loss on week 2 was just your body catching up to the drastic changes that you have endured. Keep following your plan. Everyone will lose at a different pace, and everyone experiences stalls from time to time. You are fine.

None of us lose weight as quickly as we want to, by none I mean 99/100 of us wish it would be faster.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
