Hi,

I am wrapping up my fourth week post surgery. Eating anywhere between 400-750 calories per day. I lost 10 pounds the first 2 weeks and now nothing for 2 solid weeks....why????

can you give us an idea of what you are eating , calories dont provide what type of calories your eating. Also you may just be in the dreaded 3 week stall, happens to almost all of us. Your body is still getting used to what has happened.

This is a very normal part of the process. Just focus on getting in all your fluids and Protein and follow your surgeon's instructions. You are still recovering from surgery and this goes with the territory. Stay off the scale and you will be much less anxious.

3 weeks out today and i have not lost any weight for the past 4 days. Just saw my NUT. And she said it was normal, your body realizes your are taking in few calories and starts holding on to every thing it can. Regardless it is frustrating.

Very very normal. Many people have a stall around the 3 week mark. For you it's a little later. Try not to worry and keep following your plan. I promise you will soon see the pounds come off again! For me, after the stall, I had such a big loss I actually was kind of freaked out haha!

If you aren't walking or working out, now is the time to add it and it will break you out that stall.

And yeah carbs, Proteins matter. You could have 600 calories of Protein or 600 calories of mashed potatoes. Calories need a break down. Are you logging and measuring/weighing everything?

This explains why it happens in the first few weeks. Good stuff!
