I'm currently 3.5 weeks out and have lost 20 punds at my 2 week appointment.  I don't seem to be losing any weight now, I'm following the advice of the nutritionis.  Has anyone experenced this?  How much weight have people lost in the beginning?  When is the time of the rapid weight loss? Mary JO

20 pounds is incredible!!!  You are doing great.  I remember going through the same thing at 3 weeks out.  Your body is adjusting to it's new weight.  Once it balances out, you will begin to lose again, rapidly.  Keep up the good work!

i hit a plateau at 3 weeks out and it lasted for almost 2 weeks so dont get discouraged just remember you are doing everything you are suppose to do and eventually your body will give in.  It just takes time for your body to adjust!

Mary Jo I think we all  have done this same and some people hit points and they stop....I know I am 7 months out and I hit one every month it is almost like clock work...but then I drop fast and I drop alot then I sit for a couple weeks and then I drop again.....It is just like everyone else says....it is normal. Just hang in there...
