it's normal to hit stalls. I dont know what the doctor could have done to make you lose slower than others. Did you have an RNY? Many many people have a stall at 3 weeks. In the early stages of recovery from WLS, there is absolutely no way that you cannot lose weight.
What was yoru BMI starting out? here in canada, you can't get WLS except for the band, unless your BMI is 35 with comorbidities, or 40 without.
Don’t forget that as you exercise you are burning fat and putting on muscle. You may have burned 3 pounds of fat and gained 4 pounds of muscle! This is what you want. The more muscle you put on the faster the fat will burn! If you don’t keep up with the exercise you will have a huge “stall" later on. Keep up the good work!
