Mine lasted for one week exactly. I've lost 4 pounds in the last 5 days after being at the same weight for 7 days.

Here's my standard answer to "pauses" that everyone calls a stall:

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

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

On 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.....

 I've been in a pause for what seems like a lot more that 6 weeks.  I was researching "stalls" and I came across you explanation.  I really like that answer and it makes sense.  I have been a the same weight FOREVER!  but my cloths are fitting better.  Thanks for your answer.  It definitely helps.  Thanks!
