Starting at 3 weeks I had a 3 week long stall.. stalls are pretty normal early on, it is allowing your body to catch up and mend.. take measurements of yourself.. during that first stall of mine I had lost inches even when I didnt see the scale move.. be patient, it will move again soon :)

Lots of folks get stuck at that point.  The best way to get quick info and help on this is to use the "search" button at the top of the page and put in two week stall  or three week stall.

Good luck.

A stall is something that last 6 weeks or more.  You are in a correction period.

Weight loss is like a teeter-totter....

One one side is pounds, the other inches....

If you stop going down on pounds, the inches will go down .  Are you measuring? 
Then the inches will slow and pounds will drop...


this is normal and NOT a stall, it's a correction period that your body uses to catch up.....
