keefkeef1986 32 Posted January 17, 2013 Hey everyone! So my nutritionist put me on a maximum of 1500 calories a day to lose my pre surgery weight. I have been eating between 1200 to 1500 calories a day (not net calories). I go to the gym 5 days a week anddo cardio for an hour. I bust my butt at the gym and although i know the machines are not correct on calorie burn, it supposed to give you a ballpark, they say i burn between 800 and 900 calories. I am only drinking Water too and still not losing. Nurse said body coukd be going jnto starvation mode but the nutritionist said no matter what not to increase my calories. I am only getting a net calorie difference of 300 to 600 for the day between exercise an calorie intake. Any ideas on what i should do diffferent to get off this plateau and lose the weight i need???
