sounds like you're thrown yourself into maintenance. To lose weight, you'll need to cut calories. Are you measuring/weighing and logging everything you eat? I still do it religiously after four years out, because when I stop (like over the holidays), my weight starts creeping up.

I wouldn't necessarily go all the way back to liquids; most people couldn't keep that up for more than a couple of days, but DO go back to the basics - (dense) Protein first, then nonstarchy vegetables, and then, if you have room, maybe a small fruit or whole grain serving. Track your food intake for a couple of weeks and figure out how many calories it takes to maintain your weight, and then start cutting back - gradually - from that. Lower it by my maybe 100 calories every week or two until you find your "sweet spot" where you're losing weight again.

The fastest way is to create a caloric deficit.

You may really need to take a strong look at your daily caloric intake and reduce it to find the right range that restarts weightloss.

Or when you exercise you don't count the cals burned towards what you can eat for the day.

You are likely in maintenance.

Good luck!

It seems like your stats that are displayed aren't up to date.

How high is your weight right now?

How much did you lose?

How much calories are you eating at the moment?

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
