Try searching "3 week stall" on here... literally hundreds of posts about the same thing you're going through. It's not only common, but I think maybe even necessary for a lot of people, to give the body time to catch up to the changes. The bad news seems to be that the dreaded 3 week stall can last several days or even weeks. Skipping daily weigh ins and reading about others going through the same thing seems to be the best advice I found. Just keep following your plan and stay positive...it will pass. Good luck!

This is perfectly normal, you will encounter many stalls during your journey, but do not get discouraged. Of course I say that after I kicked my scale across the bathroom this morning. Seriously though, don't let the frustration get you down.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
