TheresAGround

I had surgery years ago and lost a good amount of weight and then totally fell off the wagon. I've gained weight back, but not a whole lot. I'm trying to get down to my goal weight now, but i'm losing nothing. I can't lose a pound to save my life. i'm sticking to the high protein diet that i was suppose to have followed post surgery. cut out all junk and processed foods. not snacking. i just can't lose anything at all. I've been told two different things... first is that the surgery may have ruined my metabolism. i find that hard to believe, but i've been told it a few times. and that i'm eating to few calories. if this is the case and i need to up my cals, i would be eating all day long to get up to where people say i should be around 1800 cals a day. i don't know what to do at this point. i'm eating right and not losing a thing and its discouraging. has anyone tried to lose weight again years after their surgery and if so, did you have issues?

I don't track everyday, because I tend to eat the same thing almost everyday, but i'm in between 1250 and 1500. will try cutting a calories where i can. i know one place to start is my nuts. i have some almonds every day and I know those are calorie packed, so I will start cutting those back for sure and see what happens.
