    I had my sleeve 7/2....lost 13 lbs in 7 days and now each pound off is taking about 8-9 days! Hard to believe when I am eating 400-500 calories a day! It is disappointing to stall this early and this long...I need to drink more water....but just know that you are not alone.

    The nutritionist said it wasn't a "stall" unless it was over a month! WTF! Luckily it never lasted that long. Take measurements and write everything down. Then talk to your nut about it. You might have to tweak your intake. Hang in there! Your body just thinks it needs to preserve! Thinks your starving!

    There are many times that the scale doesn't move for a week or two and then kaboom!! Down it goes. Looks like you are doing a good job. Good luck. Don't loose your focus.

    Hey there, the 3 week stall is a real thing! Just stay the course and you'll see the scale moving again. Also be sure to take your measurements, pay attention to how clothes fit, and also if your monthly is coming up that always screws with my numbers. You aren't alone, nothing is wrong with you I promise Just hold fast and soon the scale will move again.

    This is all normal. Some have a stall of a week but others have one that lasts longer. Stay the course 64 ounces of water and 80 grams of protein. This too shall pass!!

    Everyone stalls at 3 weeks, and often after that. Sorry to say but you need to get used to it. And don't rely on the scale for the positive feedback you need -- pay attention to how your clothes feel, how you look in the mirror, your energy level. Easier to say than to do I realize! Hang in there!
