 I had RNY 4 weeks ago today, and every week I had been losing weight consistently.  I was down 18 pounds, and today when I did my weekly weigh-in I was devestated to learn that I had gained 2 pounds!!  Has this happened to anyone else??? I know I need to stop weighing myself every week, but I was just so excited, this feels like a major set back.

Don't worry, it's totally normal!!  You will find out through out your weight loss that you will lose a bunch then maybe gain a pound or two.  If you are following your surgeon plan, you can't go wrong. 

18lbs in 4 weeks is amazing!!  Think about how long it took you before to lose that much weight.  Always remember the little things and remember how far you've come. 

Good luck!!

 hey girl, relax, this is very normal and it is one of the hardest parts of this whole proccess, I know it sucks but is ur body adjusting to new changes. i rember i was a very slow loser, i lost like maybe 24 lb the 1st 2 months i was like is that it? i shouldnt have done this blah blah blah, n after the 3rd month i just start droping the weight.  so relax u will lose it this surgery works.
a very good friend of mine told me ones. i know u think your gona fail this time, cuz you have fail before, but this times is gonna be diferent this works!!!. so keep it possitive and try to enjoy your journey i know it sound silly but when you are over the 1 year mark ur gonna miss those days so take lots of pictures n ejoy 
you will lose it. don´t worry about that the hard part is keeping it off! then u can start to worry lol.
hugs!!!

I had my surgery 4 weeks ago the 19th. And I was having the same problem till this morning. I weighed 232 then went down to 229 then back to 232 so i stayed away from the scale for over a week and now down to 226. So I was happy that scale moved down!! I know it sucks when it doesnt move or it moves in the wrong way. But the stall gives way and you begin to feel much better!
