Be patient Ashley! It will happen! Being only 2 1/2 weeks out is very early and you must remember your body has been through a lot of trauma and is getting used to your new pouch. Every few weeks, I hit a slump and don't lose for a period of time, then all of a sudden, I start dropping again. Sometimes your body goes into a starvation mode and tries to hold onto everything it is given. If you can, keep your protein up and drink lots of protein shakes. Once I started drinking shakes, my body began losing very fast since the protein helps heal the cells and was helping calm my stomach by coating it. I have averaged a loss of 20 lbs. a month since April and I'm in a slump once again. I need to start my protein shakes again and get back on track! Good luck to ya and just be patient! It will happen...and SOON!
