I just completed my third week after RNY and I lost 13 lbs. I have not lost at all my third week, I actually gained a pound. The weight will come off.

Feel like I'm going through the week 3 stall this week. Gained a pound since Monday, so frustrating.

I am so thankful to have found this app! I am also at the 3 week stall & was getting so frustrated! I mean, to see the scale actually go up a few pounds rather than down was pretty discouraging .. glad to know that this is normal. I am also noticing that my body is changing even if the scale isn’t. ?

@Sabs211 I went up 3lbs last week and am now back down 1lb. Time to stay off the scale for a week or so.. that’s my plan anyway..

Staying off the scales here too :)

Very good video I found on the weight loss stalls :)

My stall is over! I lost 1.5lbs this week. A lot less than hoped but I'll take it.

So frustrating to not see the scale move but glad it's finally shifting :)

4wks post op today and healing nicely.

I know what you mean. I gained 3 lbs last week, but then I read the article posted in this thread about stalls and it all made sense. I did check my measurements and I have lost 18.5 inches so far. NSV. My husband tells me to stay off the scale, but it is so hard.
