You will NOT lose weight every day after the first week or so. 1 - 2 lb per week after the first few is reasonable.
We didn't put on all of our weight in a day, and we certainly won't lose it in one either.

I am going through the same. Had surgery 7/31 lost 12lb and have not lost anymore since Friday. Hopefully I will start losing weight soon. As of now I feel confused

Take a deep breath and be patient. Look at your loss by week, not by day, and be prepared for things to slow down!

I had my surgery last July, I lost 11lbs the first week and then didn't lose anything for 3 1/2 weeks. It stunk but just keep doing what you are supposed to do.

Just remember this is not magic. They changed your body. You had a ton of fluids pumped into you. Your body is adjusting. I felt the same way. I wanted it gone overnight. It will come off quickly but you just have to follow your plan.
Everyone here wants to help. They want you to do well. So take a deep breath and take care of yourself. Don't put your scale away. Put it out of the way for a few days. Then get on it.
I've only lost three pounds in two years. Because of those three pounds, can I still count this as a stall?
