Haven't lost any weight in a week

[KristenLe 5,979]

So I shouldn't be devastated that I've lost nothing I'm 8 days out and thought I've spent all this money and nothing is happening

Your weight right now is not accurate. You are swollen and were pumped with tons of fluids. Stick with your plan - you didn't do this for nothing! Hang in there!

I've tried No to weigh often. I am stalled but I read in advance to expect it and by the posts seems normal

Stalls happen. I usually had 4 week stalls. Just stop worrying and continue on your path

I have stalls once a month or month and half and it's been that way since April 19th when I had the surgery. The longest stall lasted 2 weeks. I've lost 55lbs since then though. For what Ive learned and read stalls are a normal part of our journey so I've learned to embrace them and if and when I do worry, I change something up and usually that brings the weight loss right back and puts me back on track.

My surgery was July 18 th and for the first month I felt like I was barely losing. 3 months later today I'm down almost 60 or more. It catches up I promise. The key too that my Dr told me is to only weigh myself once a month. Its hard but it makes sense to not stress over the number, especially in the beginning. Good luck!

I had a 2 week stall too. Then dropped a few! And it's been slow and steady from there! You'll do great. I'm 5 months out and happy with the decision

This happens to everyone...mine was about 2 weeks out of surgery and the scale hadn't moved for a week or so...I called my treatment centre and talked to the rn there and she said if she had a quarter for every time she got this same call she would be a millionaire! Lol. Your body is just in distress and wants to hold onto that weight with all its might cuz you are shocking your body with the very small amounts of food and fluids! But don't worry cuz it will come off fast as soon as your body finally let's go! At least I did....I lost 140lbs in 8 month!! still blows my mind to this day and I'm coming up on my 6 year anniversary next month. you'll do great don't worry

I'm stuck at the same weight. It's always only a 5 lb difference. It's been like this for a week now. Any suggestions? I'm only 3 weeks out of surgery so I just started eating fish and stuff like that yesterday but my weight hasn't moved. I'm walking like they said to do. Trying not to get discouraged. Anyone have this problem this early on?

Don't get discouraged...it happened to me. It will go really slow, and then all of a sudden I'll lose 3 lbs in one day. When I started advancing in the levels it really slowed...it's to be expected.

Continue to walk and move about. Drink water/liquids often. It's bound to come off. Keep me posted.

Beginning week 7 post op. Highest Weight: 325, Start Weight: 293, Surgery Weight: 285, Current Weight: 255

My weight loss has been strange. I'm 3 months post-op and have lost every week. The last two weeks I lost 6 pounds each week. Total over 60 since surgery. This week I only lost 1 pound. Lowest amount since surgery. I'm thinking I'm gonna slow down. I'm gonna freak. I don't want to stop losing but I know the "stall" will happen eventually.

Thank u everyone for being so supportive ☺

"The stall" is what led me to this site. I was in tears and even cried a bit to the clinic's liaison, though I got scolded for even getting on the scale, she explained to me exactly what one of the previous replies said. Your body just had the hell shocked out of it and needs time to grasp what's going on! It lasted a couple of weeks but I listened to her and others on this site whom were EXTREMELY understanding and supportive. You will find your place and your body will follow, slow but definitely steady. Find comfort in knowing we are right there beside you and right here when you need to just talk to someone, no matter what stage you're at. I'm glad I am finally comfortable with this new life, I made the right choice and so did you

Hey @@"Andre08" I have heard a lot of people talk about weight stalls. As far as I know I have not experienced any. I only get weighed at my milestone appointment at my bariatric center. This way I am discouraged by day to day weight fluctuations or that I am weighing on a different scales. I love hearing a "drastic" number every 3 months or so. This is method that has worked best for me.

Good luck to you!
