Has anyone else had issues that their weight stopped dropping when they went into the mushy and soft phase? I stared mushy last week and only lost 1 lb all week. Now I am eating some soft food and it still isn't moving. Is this usual? 

With my band previously, my weight just flew off in the first month. It is really depressing to not see anything happening.

It is VERY common to have a stall after the first 2 weeks or so!  Mine lasted 2 weeks, then the weight started coming off again! :)

I had a little bit of a stall when I switched to the next phase. It didn't last long. I think once my body got used to what I was doing, it started losing again - not fast, but gone.

I am glad to hear it isn't unusual, thank you! I was at my nutritionist follow up this morning and he mentioned that not eating enough meals might cause a stall because it is slowing down the metabolism. I never thought about that. I was only eating 3 meals and 1 snack at night, but I guess I need to add back some mid day protein snacks. Hoping that will help!

You can't search now but when search is up look up the 3rd week stall.  it's typically around week 3 but varies between people.   just keep on program and you'll busy through it.   I'm in it now too.

Not only did I not lose any weight at my three week mark - I gained 3 pounds!!!  But it did drop again and took an extra pound with it.  Thank goodness. 

I'm six weeks out as of today and lost 5 pounds last week.  Just keep working your plan and you'll do great!

I never said it would be easy. I said it would be worth it.

I stalled at the same stage. Not to worry, you'll lose more next week.
