3rd week and weight loss has stopped!!!!

I thought the first month was the rapid loss month? I lost 14lbs the first week, 2lbs the second week and nothing the third week; I am walking 30-45 a day, eating what I am suppose to-this is very frustrating. Has anyone else had this problem so early in the program?????

Hi Lori - I'm sorry I'm behind...what type of surgery did you have? I can only speak to my own experiences, but I feel your frustration and I hope you can find some answers here! ~Tiffany

Hiya Lori, I've been reading these boards for a couple years, and one thing I see reported over and over again from practically every WLS patient is a stall in the 3rd-5th week. It's as if the body temporarily tries to compensate for the starvation, but that will only last so long. Then your weight loss will resume. All you have to do is get your protein in, drink your water, not skip the supplements, and move, move, move. All your hard work WILL pay off. Julie in Haven
