CherCare 34 Posted December 22, 2016 That's wonderful. I'm one who gained weight after surgery. Fifteen pounds! I'm one week out and have lost 9 of that. I'm not letting myself get depressed, but your great success gives me hope. Thanks for sharing. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greensleevie 451 Posted December 22, 2016 @@vsg_fairy Depends. One week, maybe 3. The thing about those pesky stalls is they may be annoying, but they are just part of the whole process. And the scale may not be moving, but you'll probably still be losing inches, so take measurements! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
