I am three week post op on Friday and during my month of shakes (two weeks prior to surgery and two weeks post surgery) I lost 45 pounds. Since I have started on soft food a week ago, I havent lost any weight. Has this happened to anyone else. I had the vertical sleeve surgery. P

A stall at the third week pretty much happens to everyone.  Search here for "three week stall" and you'll see just how common and normal it is!

That's happening to me too! Worst thing is I'm still on liquid diet 😔

Your body needs to catch up. It's normal.   It's a big shock to lose that much weight in such a short period of time. I'm sure you'll be back to losing again soon. Take care!

If it makes you feel any better I only lost 8 lbs the first month :/ it sucked. Second month 13. It's different strokes for different folks. Try not to compare yourself to others losses, I know easier said than done. But you'll get there just be patient :)
