Calorie Concern

[alw1981 2]

I track everything on MFP. I was sleeved on Jan 7th and I started at 250. I was only able to eat (drink) between 400 and 500 calories per day until this week. I started the week at 233. I have increased my calorie intake to 800 calories per day and I've increased my Protein intake significantly. I'm still not getting 80 grams, but it is much more than I was getting before. Today I am 2 pounds heavier. Could eating 800 calories per day cause me to gain since my body was used to 500?

You're right on track for the 3 week stall. My longest stall was at 3 weeks out and lasted 20 days. Just keep doing you and follow your plan. Your body is just readjusting. I hit a stall every 2-3 weeks. I'm a classic stair-step loser. I've stair stepped my way down 211 pounds so far

DO NOT worry and do not do anything crazy. Just get your Water and Protein in and keep doing you. YOU GOT THIS. It's a mental mind **** so hold on tight.

Thank you. It doesn't make sense that I can eat so little and not lose weight every day but it helps to know I'm normal.

At this point month 1/2 out and similar diet as you my weight has been plateauing every so often or few days apart and between and when it does the weight fluxtuates a few pounds up, stalls, then I loose a a few more than the high number after couple days, another pound or more then the same. Has been on going for a while, I expect added exrcise soon will change this some but I expect these plateaus and fluxtuations to go on. I do lose more going downwards and its better maybe to judge on a weekly bases as others do it and I've read here on forums before.
