Stalling Bad??

Is a weight stall of 12lbs bad 11 days post op? I have been on the -12 side for the last three days just wondering if its me or just how it goes? :/

MeToo.

How much have you lost?

I went in for my one week post op and was SO psyched that I lost 16 lbs.... Then I went in last week for my 2 wk post op apt (exactly 7 days after the day I weighed in 16 lbs less). Anyway, I was like, "well, I'll be happy with a smaller number, maybe 5 or 7 lbs lost"... I lost 1/2 pound !!!  lol it sucked !! I hadn't done anything different, didn't cheat or stray from the plan and all I got was a stinkin 1/2 pound >:( 

But, they said that was normal, a lot of people lose big the 1st week & then your body kinda tries to play catch-up. It's all good ;)

Ah thanks so much! That makes me feel so much better!

Perfectly normal.....that is why if you cannot handle the information....you need to stay away from the scale.  This will not be the only time that the scale will not move.  If may even be up a lb. or two at certain times and then drop again.  It is not a race in a straight line to goal weight.  It is a marathon, because after you lose the excess weight, you still need to watch what you eat and weigh yourself.

Thank you so much for your words of encouragement and advice! I really appreciate it!

Being the same weight for three days is not a stall. Now, if you stay that weight weight for three weeks, then it's a stall. Your fine. Stay away from the scale for a bit.

Ohh ok I will try

I know staying away from the scale can be hard. I had to force myself!! I weigh in each Wed. Now, it helps!! You got this!
