Yes it is normal. I had my first stall at three weeks too. It budged after 2 more weeks. Don't worry about it. Just hit your Water drinking and Protein goals.

Thank you! I am definitely trying to reach my daily Water intake and also Protein goals. I have started tracking what I eat daily. It just scared me that I was losing so well and then it just stopped.

I had a stall about that time as well...I just hit 4 months out 12/1, and had been at a stall all of November! I get on the scales every other day to check, but finally on 12/2 I have started to lose again and the scale has dropped 8lbs since then..I have done nothing different than I had been before or during the stall, it just happened. I try not to get to discouraged about it, but this time was really hard for me as my first goal is now only 3lbs away! It is the weight I was when graduating high school and now I am down 81lbs! I always think I am loosing too slowly, but everyone is different and let me know if you have any questions. Good luck!

Is it normal to hit a stall already after only 3 weeks??? Was losing good and then now the scale has not moved in almost a week. Lost 20lbs the first 2 weeks

Yea I hit my first stall at 2 weeks and it lasted 3 weeks. The scale just started moving again SLOWLY! someone suggested u measure because losing inches isn't always synonymous with losing weight.. and they were right ???? stick to your plan!

My stall started at day 9 post-op, after losing 6 lbs. I have had patience, but it's running out soon. Today is day 5 of my stall. I took my measurements today and they haven't changed. Something has to happen soon or I will lose my positivity instead of lbs..

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
