Is this normal?

I lost 23 pounds in my first three weeks post surgery, but lost NOTHING on the fourth week.  I have been exercising 30 to 45 minutes per day and following my doctor's instructions perfectly.  Is this normal to have stalled this soon after surgery?  I can use some encouragement.  All my old fears of past diet failures are coming out to haunt me.

I had a lapbad in December and seemed stalled right away. But I was busy, unknown to me, losing inches, and could start wearing smaller clothes before the numbers started to drop. Now I'm on track at 1-2 pounds a week.

Keep working your plan. make sure you get all your water and protein.
Good luck!

After about 9 weeks I hit a Stall/Plateau... see thread http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/AZ/3856456/Plateau/ 

I stayed there for a couple of weeks.  Now I seem to be getting back on track.

Do what your program says, and do not deviate.  The weight will start to come off again.
