I think you might be in starvation mode...are you working out at all? Sounds like you may need to work on boosting your metabolism. Be sure to discuss this with your nutritionist.

I like you was keeping my calories low but when I started eating 800/1000 calories a day I started losing more. I do use my treadmill for 30min a day. Good luck with you journey.

Make sure you are getting in all your fluids and truly measure and document your food. Sometimes we THINK we are at 600 calories and we are over. Agreed with the exercise for sure. good luck!

Hi la sole

Wow.... You are amazing, I got operated on 12 March around the same time as you and I have lost 30 pounds... Damn! That's nothing compared to what you have lost....

I workout 60 minutes on the treadmill, I walk 2 miles everyday and I don't seem to be losing enough.

My starting weight was 245 pounds... Gosh I m sooooo far behind comparing to what to have achieved in 3 months ????????????????????

I'm stated with 395 and now I'm 235, but I was 331 and I don't know why I gain weight, sometime my hand and legs get swelling.

Why aren't you trying to pass the 600 calorie a day mark? Why are you counting calories?

Are you getting in all your Protein everyday?

Are you getting in all your Water everyday?

If so, then going over 600 calories is a good thing. If not, then not going over 600 calories is a terrible idea.

If you send your body into starvation mode youll not lose the weight....600 calories seems like a really low amount even for an average person....

You need the calories to make sure you lose fat and not muscle mass. Id speak to a nutritionist but 600 calories coupled with regular excersise seems like it could be damaging if done long term :s

You are not getting enough calories and I doubt you are getting enough Protein. That is crazy only eating 600 calories a day!!

Even 800 calories is too low. You should discuss without your doctor/nutritionist, but you should be shooting for closer to 1000-1200 calories a day (at least) and at least 70 grams of Protein, and drinking 64 ounces of Water daily.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
