I had my bypass 19th jan & have only lost 20lb in 6 weeks but since week 3/4 it has really slowed down, lucky if I lose 1lb a week, I'm so gutted & deflated, I somehow knew my body would fight it! I'm eating as I should & concentrating on protein & fluids but it so frustrating, I can feel my depression kicking back in!

This is normal, don't be. Deflated, 20lbs in 6 weeks! Your body will slow off around now as it catches up! Don't worry the loss will carry on but it is a gradual process, which is best as your skin has chance to shrink back too.
Jyst think what you have lost so far you are a total success!!

Its hard when the weight loss stalls isnt it? But just bear in mind the weight you lose pre op and now post op that adds up to a lot and losing a 1lb a week is still good at least its coming off and staying off ! I too stalled and is only losibg around 1 to 2 lb a week would love to lose heaps more but have to be happy with what I am losing
keep the faith keep on doing what your doing and you will see results soon enough
