All most everyone!!!  This is VERY normal, it is like your body is taking a deep breathe to catch up with all the changes going on.  Relax and please do your self a huge favor, STOP weighing yourself for a few days.  I know it is a really hard thing to not do, but think of the amazing reaction you will have after a week.  I have "train" myself to only weigh on Friday.  You are going to love your sleeve.  Good luck...Jodie

Happiness depends upon ourselves!!

I know you what you are going through. I had the surgery April 26th and I had not lost anything for over a week! I did get on the scale this morning and I had lost 2lbs. Thank goodness! Hang in there! It will come off!

Mine was May 3rd and I stopped losing about the same time....It's so frustrating!!! I hear it's normal though around this time, but my mind still tries to tell me crazy discouraging stuff....Just a hard point to be at

Today is my 3 week anniversary. I have been stalled since day 9. I saw a doctor on Friday (day 9 following surgery) and the following week I was the same weight. I stopped in the doctor's office on Monday to check BP and weighed myself too, just because. It was the same weighed the same, however, I was retaining water. I got a mild diuretic. I am still retaining but Its my weigh day so I am going to venture in today ... almost nervous.

Stalls are normal and I am seeing my tummy go down even though the scale isn't moving. Keep up what you are doing and it will come off.

Good Luck!
