8 weeks out with 2 week stall?

[bears1982 1]

Had my surgery June 26 and lost 40lbs in the first 5 weeks. I have not really lost any weight within the last 2 weeks...is this normal?

I don't think that 40 lbs in 5 weeks is normal. I would say that you are one of the lucky ones. The weight loss stall is normal though. Be diligent with Portion Control. Protein first then vegetables and fruit. Drink lots of Water. Exercise as much as you can. Weight loss stalls are a fact of life with this. Keep your eye on the prize. Good luck.

I am on a stall too. It is hard...my first 38 pounds came off in five weeks and now I am teetering between 194 and 192 for a few weeks now... Not sure what else to do. I'm eating tiny amounts of food...it is frustration. Hang on...
