Weight loss stall 3 weeks after sleeve?

I had gastric sleeve surgery on September 20th and was losing weight pretty quick but it just stopped in the last few days! Is this normal? Is it going to pick up again? Has anyone else had this issue?

yep - it's the infamous three week stall - right on time! Happens to probably 90% of us. If you do a search for it on this site, you will find over 17,000 posts on it (as of yesterday when I looked, 17, 501 to be exact. And no, I am NOT kidding..)

Others said it already but yes the three week stall is a thing. Just keep doing what you are doing. Stay off the scale for a while if that helps and trust the process. The loss will pick back up shortly.

Yep - MGB surgery on the 22nd, and stalled second week post surgery. It's frustrating, but normal. Do a google search on the medical reasons it happens and it'll make you feel ok about it. It did with me.

Just got to ride it out.

I'm so glad I came across this post, I too had RNY surgery on 9-20-21 and the scale hasn't moved in DAYS. I feel a lot better now, because I'm following the plan to a T and it's discouraging the weight is not just falling off.
