Ok, I know this has been a topic of discussion before, but I have not lost anything since my first 10 days post op. I am 4 weeks out and lost an initial 10 pounds in the first 10 days and haven't lost anything since. I really don't understand it and it's causing me to freak out a little. I am doing everything right (getting enough protein, liquids and even exercising several times per week) and not seeing the results. I need to be convinced that the weight will come off. I pray everyday that the scale does not say "206" anymore!!!

Thanks for the support and encouragement, ladies! I am not necessarily comforted by the fact that there are others who are having similar experiences because I don't want other people to experiencethis frustration, but it does help to be reminded that some of us are slower losers and the sooner I accept that, the better! So, thanks for taking the time to offer your advice and support. While I have read some other threads on here, I am a pretty new user. I cannot say for certain whether I have "stopped" losing or "stalled" as I am not up to speed on the vernacular. What I do know is that I lost 10 lbs in 10 days and haven't lost anything since, which is frustrating, disapointing and scary . All I was looking for in posting this was some individualized support and/or advice and suggestions on how to break through. I didn't realize that posting a new thread on a topic that had already been discussed was frowned upon.

I have been in the same slow boat. Had surgery on the 2nd and lost 10 pounds in 10 days, but haven't lost anything since! I am trying to be patient and do what the dr said and hope the weight will start falling off soon. But it is hard to not feel the frustration I felt before surgery about doing the right things and not losing!
