This is not a pity party, but I am SUPER disappointed with my results 10 wks post op. I saw my surgeon yesterday and he made me feel awful because my results are so slow...10 wks, only 30 lbs. I average 600-700 calories per day. My highest calories to date are 900 in a day. I exercise about 1x per week (but more now since my dr. visit) and I eat the exact same way that I did before surgery, just MORE protein AND tiny portions portions.
Despite what my doctor believes, I ate healthy before and I rarely felt hungry. I was one of those who put my body in starvation mode by skipping breakfast and lunch on most days. Since surgery, I get hungry every 2.5-3 hrs, but I consume so little that I thought it was keeping my metabolism up. Apparently not. I am so behind in weight loss and I feel like a failure. I need to change things up, but I have no idea where to start.
My start weight was 264, I'm at 233 today.
