The first week after surgery I lost 6 pounds - the second week I lost 13 pounds... so far I haven't lost anything since Thursday @ my two-week appointment. I would normally be freaking out and thinking that I'm not going to lose anymore but apparently this is normal for a lot of people. Still frustrating though!
I know its frustrating 
I am at a stall once again. This is my second time I only lost two-tenths of a pound in a week.Keep the faith 
and know it takes time you will be absolutely fine.Don't focus on the pounds focus on your health and the inches that still come off of you.The process is a slow one and also a good one. I wish you the best.

I'm "stalled" too.
I want to thank the very generous person who, while I was at my 2 week check-up, liked me enough to share their cold with me.
I've been coughing and coughing ... it's getting better, but it sucks. For the first few days it was very hard to get in my protein, so I took in what I could ... I'm making it a point now to get my protein, and try to get all of my liquids.
I had progressed to eggs and cottage cheese, but I just can't do those w/ this cold. I'm almost always 'full' from the phlem, so I've gone to the tubes/bullets. Those I can get down, and still keep a high water/liquid number.
I'm sure it doesn't help that this is THAT week ... so there's probably bloating and water retention.
I've been at -25 for nearly a week now, and frustrated. I so much wanted to lose 40 by end of month 1. My next appointment is on Tuesday (6 days), and it doesn't look like it's going to happen.
I do have more energy, tho. And my thighs and butt where they meet are getting smaller (good-bye thunder-thighs!) -- the ONE spot in my jeans that I've noticed is baggier.
