I would definitely call your doctors office and let them know that you are not sure why you are not losing weight... And ask what you can possibly do. I'm not sure if that's too many calories for a Weight Loss Diet as I have not done mine yet that does sound like a lot of calories

I'd get on a shake diet. I'd take my calories down to 1200 at the most, 1000 maybe even. You will be getting far less than that post surgery. Good to get used to it now. Calorie restriction will do the trick!

My nutritionalist suggested a 1400 calorie diet for me. However, I found out that anything over 1,000 calories a day caused me to maintain or even gain weight. I discovered this through months of keeping a daily j o u r n a l.

Janine 510: i also struggle with losing. I dont even have to mych to lose before surgery. What I did was basically Atkins. High protien, higher fat, low carbs only from vegetables, except berrries was the only friut I ate. I lost 5 lbs in 1 week. I did do WW beforw that and amost cried, 1 lb the first week, 1/2 the 2nd. Then I did the low carb, higher fat, and Protein. Its working 2 lbs to go before last surgeon consult. Good luck.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
