And I have stalled! I knew to expect this so no panic here! Yesterday I weighed 351.8 and today I weighed the same. But I started at 409. I'm sure the weightloss will start in a few days. if it hadn't been for people posting here through I would be in a panic.

Don't panic. It sounds like your stall has only been one day????????? If so, that is not a stall. Stay on plan and you will lose. You have lost 58 lbs in 21 days. That is amazing. You are rockin' that sleeve. Keep up the good work. Sharon

My stalls seem to be a 2 week process. Even my very first stall, which was my 3 week stall. It can really suck and get you discouraged, but right when you give up, you lose a couple pounds. :) You are doing great with your weight loss so far, and it only continues to get better!

I was sleeved on the 13th as well. I am going on a 1 week long stall right now. But I am hoping it will move soon. It happens :]

 Yep - stalls happen.  Need to give your body to adjust! Stick to your plan and you will see the scale move and then stay solid for a time.  Stick to your plan!  409 to 351 is amazing!!

Ya - you need more then 1 day before you can call it a Stall :)  BUT make sure you are measuring your body - cause while the scale might not move, your waist, chest, neck etc will !!  I'm in week 1 Post Op so i'm not looking forward to this 3rd week Stall everyone talks about !!  I've decided that it's just not going to happent to me :)  

I'll drop back down to clear liquids if i have too LOL :)

A stall is 6 weeks or more!

You are in a "pause"

Are you measuring?

When you stop losing pounds, you generally lose inches.  Then pounds, then inches...

So measure!  I bet during times of "pauses" it's you body catching up and your losing inches all over (Arms - upper/lower, legs-thighs/calfs, hips, waist, chest...etc)

No I'm not measuring my body in inches. I'm letting my clothes do that for me. It was wonderful being able to eat "real food" today. I can't want to pass the puree stage and go onto the mushy stage then "solid" food.
