[beldary 7]

Just wondering if this happend to anyone else? I am 6 weeks post op, still following my diet and exercise but I haven't lost any weight this week its like i'm on hold. Everyone tells me I look like i'v lost but I can't really tell I still have the same pants size.

Same here! I'm almost 7 weeks and started losing again, but I lost zero from week 5 until a few days ago.

Im 4 weeks post op and had a 12 day stall. Dr and Nut said its very normal to come to a stall. Your body is just trying to catch up, its on shock mode right now.

Thanks everyone, It's comforting to know others are facing the same challenges.

When is a goodtime to start working out

The best time to start is as soon as the nurses will let you get out of bed after surgery. Start walking. And, continue to walk everyday once you've gotten home. As far as more strenuous exercise, ask your dr. I was free to do all exercise at week 3. I began the couch to 5 k program and now I'm almost 7 weeks out from surgery and am in week 4 of couch to 5k. Using the elliptical on days I'm not jogging.
