2 week stall

The scale is not moving at all. I am probably overeacting but I know people say there is a two/three week stall. I wanted to find out if there is anything at all to get over it. I am trying to eat enough calories a day (though I know I'm not). I'm drinking 40 -50 oz of water a day, working my way up to 60. I have six small high protein meals a day. I try to go on walks every few hours. What can I do?

Your surgery was the day after mine, I am stalled as well. People tell me that I appear to be losing weight but the scales do not show it and I can not see it. It is truly frustrating and I understand where you are. The best advice I have read is that I need to take my scales and throw them under a table and not weigh every day or so. It can be so discouraging that the numbers do not change. I just started my first day of pureed type foods, am walking about 30 mins a day. Let me know how you are doing. We can do this.

I lost every day since the surgery.. but the past 3 days nothing... actually the scale went up 1.5 lbs from what? I'm eating about 300 calories a day? lol.. don't stress your body is just adjusting, it will start dropping off again soon!!! =)

I am 500 calories a day but most of that is the Protein shakes.

I stalled from day 10-week 6, than dropped 25 pounds in the last 3 weeks, your loss will start again , I felt the same way.

I had my surgery 3/2 and I am at a stall also.  I have lost 30 lbs so far, but not a lb since last week.  I eat 3 high protein meals a day and have 1 protein shake to increase the amount of protein that I am getting each day.  I try to not weigh myself everyday, but I know that is hard not to.  Good luck and try to not get frustrated.

Yes, I stalled at 3 weeks too. I didn't change for 2 weeks then all of a sudden I lost 5 lbs, then 3 lbs, etc. It will happen, just keep doing what you are doing.

just a question, do you guys measure your self..maybe no weight loss but inches lost, I no im new only a week out and already 17lbs lost, i am waiting on the stall and remind my self not to panic so much, cause with RNY you will lose the weight, and I think the weight coming off slow is betta than rapily fast.....you get a chance to build muscle and not have hanging skin, or gall bladder damage with rapid weight lost....TRUST ME I HAVE BEEN JUMPING FOR JOY SEEING ALL THE WEIGHT GO 1-2 LBS A DAY... but i know i will stall and im only one week out...but when im in my stall peroid, i am goin to focus on inches instead of weight until the weight start coming back off...and then i read a post somewhere that says...THROW THE SCALE OUT THE WINDOW....

Oh I so feel your pain.  I lost 18 pounds since surgery but most of it was the first week to ten days.  It sucks.  I just keep hoping for the loss to start again.  I lost 3 pds this past week but that seems so little.  I could do that on wiegh****chers.  ugh.  I eat about 700 cals.

I stalled from week 3 through week 8
