YES .. I am at 6 weeks too and for the past 20 days I only lost 2 pounds ..  but Im fearing not - because I know its just the body resisting - the body is used to the LARD and doesnt want to let it go .. but when Im only consuming 500 - 800 calories per day - if even that - the LARD will lose this battle without a fight .. so dont give up .. dont be discouraged dont expect too much all at once it took us years to put all this LARD on and it may take US more time than the next BUT in all good time It will come off .. so just keep walking the treadmill and Stay away from SUGARS and FATS and less carbos and absolutely NO SYNTHETIC SUGARS SUBSTITUTES .. STevia product is the ONLY sugar you should be using STEVIA is a natural product please stay away for all other synthetic sugars .. Aspartame is marketed as NutraSweet and Equal and found in products from diet drinks to sugar-free ice cream.  Aspartame contains amino acids and methanol, an alcohol.  An Italian research team found lymphoma and leukemia among female rats in a long-term study of aspartame.

Acesulfame K, also sold as Sunnett, is not metabolized by the body and so contains zero calories. It's in baked goods, diet soft drinks and sugar-free gum. Large doses of a breakdown product from acesulfame K have been shown to affect the thyroid of rats, rabbits and dogs.

I am having the same experience. Lost 21 the first 2 weeks, 4 for each of 2 weeks after and then 1 in week 5 and 6. UGH, not feeling good lately with no movement on the scale. I spoke with the doc in a support group this week. She said it is ok and just keep doing what I am doing. It is hard.

Topic: new to all this waiting on insurance approval is this worth it?
ok so i just mailed my info packet out today and am waiting for my gastric bypass surgery to be approved. i am at 250 lbs and 24 years old. i have a 2 year old and its getting hard for me to play with her or have any energy at all. working out is unbearable! i also have pcos and we want another baby but i dont get my periods. i did get it last month when i started working as a nurses assistant- i think because i got so much exercise! anyways, are any of you near my age and can you tell me if you lost any weight right after surgery or how long it took you. do you have a lot of access skin and what does your scars look like? just want to make sure im doing the right thing. also how long did it take you to recover? how long were you in the hsopital and how long was the insurance/ medical/phycological process before you had a surgery date? thanks- misty
