No weight loss in a week and a half

Stressing a little. Since January 1 when I started my prep until February 12 I has lost 37 pounds. I've not lost anything since. I've had bronchitis and a sinus infection for about 2 weeks and wonder if the medication could be playing a part in this?

Don't stress. Weight loss is not linear. You will stall...sometimes for weeks. You might gain as well at times. You just started your journey so focus on eating healthy, learning how to eat with your band, exercising, and focusing on the non scale victories. Good luck and keep us posted. I bet you will do fine.

Thank you @gowalking. It's just a little frustrating.

37lbs in roughly a month and 1/2 is AMAZING! You have to give your body time to catch up with itself. During the time that the scale isn't moving is when your body takes advantage of catching up with itself by losing inches. As long as you keep on making healthy food choices, getting in your Water, Protein and exercising the scale will start moving again, it has no other option. I know it's frustrating but hang in there you're doing great!!

Wow! Right now your focus should be getting better not losing weight. Your overall health is essential for weight loss. Stay in bed if possible and drink plenty of fluids. Once you are feeling like your old self you can then get back to focusing on weight loss. Congratulations on what you have lost so far and continued success.
