2 week post op stall? ????

[Jooj 1]

Hey guys, hoping someone can help me out here. I'm 2 weeks post op today. I have not had any complications, no pain, vomiting etc (I'm NOT complaining)! My recovery has been amazing until today when I got on the scale and only dropped 2lbs!! I lost 13 my first week but only 2 this week! I'm so frustrated! Now, I do feel better, have been working out harder than "allowed to" cuz I feel like I can but scale wise I'm upset. Has this happened to anyone else? Words of advice? Thanks guy!

My advice: work on getting in all your Protein and Water every day and stay off the scale.

By the way, "only" losing 2 pounds is not a stall. You will stall throughout the process. Our bodies do not lose weight at a constant rate.

The best thing to do is focus on your Protein and Fluid goals and trust the process and weigh very infrequently.

Thanks Babbs! Trying not to get frustrated. I just felt like I was doing everything right and when I weighed myself this am I was bummed. But I will trust the journey!

I did the same. Dropped a bunch then seemed to stall. When I asked about it, I was told your body gets sort of shocked, and hangs back a second. . Most people experience it, but then it picks up again third week out. I was sceptical but, was true.. so hang tight, your body will catch up, trust the process

Thanks Livincrimson! It's good to know other people that have experienced it.
