Week 4 And No Weight Loss

[Before 50 20]

I am in week 4 and I have been doing awesome up to this point ....lost 26 lbs. but I did not loss any weight this week. Has this happened to anyone else. I am so scared that I went through this and I'm not going to loss weight. I have been following my post-op diet to a T and have not put one thing in my mouth that I shouldn't......

You're hitting the classic 3 week stall. Don't sweat it, just keep working your plan and the weight loss will start up again. This is a good time to take your measurements and compare them to your measurements from pre-op, or for comparison down the road. My pattern seems to be that I lose for awhile, then I stall and lose inches during the stall. I walked out of my first pair of pants during a stall.

I too am in a stall I am in day 28. It is frustrating because you want to keep seeing the numbers come down. I am going to keep doing what I am doing and I know the weight will follow.

I've been in a stall since I came home from the hospital. I hope the scale is just broke because everything is loose on my & people are starting to ask me if I've list weight. So don't worry, it's coming off!

Take measurements! You'll see a change in your inches which will help negate the mean scale (: best wishes!

EVERYONE goes through this. Read the link in my sig about stalls, it will explain what's happening to you. Just be patient and it will break on its own.

Thank goodness I'm in good company! I haven't lost an ounce for a week or so. Tomorrow will be 4 weeks. I'm down 30 so far but the scale hasn't budged since. Stupid scale.

Thanks everyone for the words of encouragement. I will keep going and I'm sure it will catch up. I will take my measurements too!

My sister had RNY in 2010, & they told her not to weigh herself until the 1 mo check up & she peeked about 2-1/2 wks in & was devastated. Then at her check up she was down 30+ lbs. I'm a daily weigh/recorder & I can't wait to take a month off of WI's!! this thread has given me the "OK" to just ignore the scale in Mo1.
