Not Losing

As anyone else had this same problem.  I lost 20 the first 3 weeks after my surgery and now I have not lost any in the last week?  I feel very depressed because I was doing so well then I just stopped losing weight. 

Type "three week stall" into the search box.  It happens to just about everyone. 

I stalled at three weeks,  too.  It freaked  me out.  But after about a week or so it started again.  I've lost 17lbs in the 4 weeks since my stall. Hang tough,  it will start again.  

I feel for you. I was "stuck" 2.5 weeks after surgery. I lost 18 lbs. those first weeks and then nothing. I had lost 44 lbs. prior to surgery and my MD thought that may be why I went hit a plateau so early. After 7 weeks I finally started losing weight again. My doctor was stumped and I tried every suggestion his office had: increase protein, increase calories, decrease calories, increase water, increase walking, swith up my diet, etc... Nothing worked but time. I did, however, see a big change in my body during the time I wasn't losing weight and dropped 2 dress sizes. I was sure I'd be the world's only 350 lb. size 10! It is extremely discouraging though, especially when others having surgery kept saying how the weight just "dropped off".

I can't give you any words of wisdom other than it passed for me and two weeks after the weight loss started again I have lost 12 lbs. and am down another dress size. Hng in there!
