Losing Slow At Very Beginning?

[No game 14,437]

Yeah the cake wasn't good and I'm not happy about it. It was my sons birthday and I was powerless over it... And I ate a thin mint yesterday! I get so confused like Dana said some people here say they eat 600 calories a day and are losing great then you have others say they are eating 1100 a day and they are losing..

I guess your going to he our test subject John!!

I dunno, I don't think that I've hit 1100 yet. Have tried, but, truly I don't want to eat. I have to make myself do it and most of time I really do just forget to eat.

I'll confess, did eat a very small sliver of pizza last night, it was my daughters surprise bday party. But was right back in the gym this AM running it off.

Yeah I just finished dinner and I've had 576 calories today 9 carbs 70 Protein

And I don't not want anything else tonight!!

(Unless it was a piece of cake of course)

[johnlatte 1,232]

I just looked at mfp. 743 cals, 18 carbs and 49 protein....not good. But tomorrow is my "weigh" day, so we shall see.

Dude you need to gnaw on a piece of meat and get that Protein up

[johnlatte 1,232]

That was my Breakfast ( every morning )

[johnlatte 1,232]

Mine too most days unless I forget....

I eat anywhere from 559 to 750 calories a day I don't know I just "feel" like it would be even worse for me if I ate more.. One day I hit 900 but that was because I ate a little cake.

Laura, I feel the same way. I just have a " feeling" that eating more just isn't the answer for me. And it's not just the dramatic Oh my God I'm afraid I might gain a pound..... it's more like intuition .... lol But trust me, I wish it WAS the answer! I mean, what could be better than having a doctor tell you that you need to eat more! A dream come true!

Hehehe.. Don't I know it! Especially if they said eat something fatty and yummy!

I could not stomach another Protein product today...

My doctors order was to eat around 1000 a day

Hi' date=' i fear I am going to be a slow loser. Here I am 11 days post op, and i've barely lost anything. its hard to watch all the posts of people saying, "oh hey, I lost 15 lbs at my 1 week post op appt." Not me -- 2 lbs. Sigh. I was wondering if you all had slow weight loss from the very beginning?[/quote']

I have not lost any thing after my first week

[bayareanan 24]

I had surgery 12/6 and haven't lost anything since the first week. I am down 10lbs only.
