mamacorney 3 Posted April 27, 2012 Hi! It seems to defy all logic when we consume 400 calories and do not lose weight. It's crazy. At six weeks I have lost a total of 23 pounds since surgery. I wish it was a whole helluva lot more' date=' but it's 23 pounds. Couple that with preop weight loss and I'm doin okay I guess.[/quote'] It's very frustrating, I was told that at 6 weeks I could start exercising , hopefully that helps with a quicker weightless, even if it's only 1-2 lbs a week! It's still something and would feel better then a stall! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spadesmcloven 8 Posted April 27, 2012 Increase your calories. I was at a stall for over three weeks. I am 6 weeks out now. Increased calories and am losing now ... You are in starvation mode. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rizabonita 41 Posted April 27, 2012 I was sleeved March 12th and have lost about 30 lbs. I have been recording my calorie intake and I am only getting up to about 400 calories daily, I'm guessing that's why I'm not losing anymore weight :/ tomorrow I have my 6wk post op, hoping the doc and nut help me figure this out.

nettan 3 Posted April 28, 2012 It is very frustrating to be eating such low amounts of food and calories yet come to a complete stall on the scales but I found this information the other day and really found it helpful. I hope it will help all of you too. http://www.dsfacts.com/weight-loss-stall-or-plateau.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

spadesmcloven 8 Posted May 3, 2012 Same happened to me. Finally at week 6 I started losing after I was able to increase my calories. Try 800-1000 daily. Use fitness pal if you can online Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
