Hey gals....need some advice.
It's been almost a week without ANY weight loss (I'm only 2 1/2 weeks out). The scale actually reads 1.5 pounds HEAVIER!!!!
I am getting in my protein...about 70-80 grams a day. I'm trying to get in all my water, and since I'm having 2 meal replacement shakes each day (plus water), the liquids are pretty much covered.
I'm also eating unsweetened applesauce, sugar free pudding or yogurt each day, with a bit of pureed beans or soup.
I've also been walking 2 miles in the evenings.
So I don't understand why I'm not losing! It's so FRUSTRATING!!!
I've heard (and read) of this happening to others...just don't know what to do to get that scale moving again.
My calories each day can't be more than 600-800 (and hardly any are from sugar or fat).
Any tips or advice?
Thanks!

dont worry.it happens.there are many reasons for the gain.dont forget you are still healing.i know its hard but stay off the scale for a couple of days and you will see then.
for myself some days when i get on the scale im up a lb and the next im down 3-5 so it changes .

At 2 weeks, I stalled for almost 3 weeks. It happens and it will pass and the weight will start falling off again. Fustrating isn't it?

I've read (cause I ain't got a sleeve yet .....) that one thing that will help your piece of mind in a stall is to do your measurements.  You can still lose inches even if you are not losing weight (so they say..)    That is strictly what I read, no personal experience

Same thing happen to me, at 2 weeks I had a 3 week stall. Don't weigh yourself, sounds like your doing great.

It's perfectly normal..and REALLY ANNOYING! It will pass though! PROMISE! Your body is freaking out a bit from surgery, lack of calories and diet change. Once it gets used to it the changes you will drop weight again. Keep on doing what you're doing and you will get results very soon again. Just be good to you and yes do take measurements. I did, sporadically and WOW it wasn't really cool to see no weight loss but to drop a size... VERY COOL!

Big help for me was to stop weighing myself.  I was checking 3 times a day.  You dont see the loss that way.  Everyone stalls at some point, just your body adjusting.  Your day will come!

It can be frustrating! The scales I have at home are not accurate so I just gave up weighing myself. The last time I weighed myself was at my appt with Dr. Vergis on Oct. 4th. I have an appt with Laura in November and I won't weigh myself until then. I think it will be more exciting that way. I know I'm not losing very fast especially compare to what I have seen others post but some of my clothes have gotten a bit looser. I will do my measurements over the weekend. You're doing awesome and those pounds will keep coming off and we will hit those dreaded stalls that we have read about. 

i have to agree with everyone!!

that was EXACTLY the time that i had a huge stall.
VERY normal and to be expected.

once you're over this stall,
you'll be so excited because you'll lose quickly. :) :)

keep trucking sweetie! 
don't get discouraged!!

I am also in the same boat as you i am at almost 3 weeks stall losing 1 pound going up 2 i wasent weighing in every day and i have been  lately because my husband was. I have been very upset about this as this is really my first stall since surgery in apri 27. But you are getting all your protein and liquids in, as i am no i am t trying but stil cant get past the protien drinks what to do what to do  i also know that i dont go to the washroom on regular basis. Well good luck  as i try every day also to get that scale to move
