I just had my RNY two weeks ago tomorrow..I was losing weight steadily until about 4 days ago, and I've been stuck at the same weight since then. Am I retaining water or is this normal?

A plateau is when you do not lose pounds OR inches for 4 weeks or longer.

Keep in mind you will not lose daily - I suggest picking ONE weigh day a week and stick to that. You also may not lose each week ... its very normal. Always check your inches as well - sometimes when the scale stops moving, the tape measure does :-)

First visit to surgeon - 288 ~ bmi 45.1
2 week pre-op 252 ~ bmi 39.5
Total lost - 153 Since surgery - 117!
Goal weight - 155 (mine) 180 (surgeons)
Current weight - 135 (2020 I lost 10lbs due to dedicating myself to working out more and being in better shape)

1/14/2025 still maintaining 135 :-)
