Hi everyone.. I'm really at my wits end.... Since June I've only lost 4lbs. I had my surgery Nov 2012 and I've lost 101lbs. I still weight 232lbs and still have a good bit to lose. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong??? low carbs, no carbs, high carbs any and everything I can think of to break this plateau.. I have really upped my exercise routine , cycling , pilates, walking, jogging, Curves for women etc. I must admit July and Aug I did very little if any exercise but since the first of Sept. I've been really faithful to dly exercise. (5x a week) . I could see a plateau for this long if I was close to my goal, but umm I still weight 232lbs. I have dropped inches and a size in clothes, but I NEED to see the scales moving ... staying around 1500 calories a day and normally burn around 600 calories a day in exercise ... I was eating 1000 cal dly and that wasn't working, my husband thought I needed to up my calories so I did.. Please can anyone give this gal some advice??? Has anyone else plateaued this long , surely this isn't normal?? I mean really, I get my tummy taken out and still can't lose weight... For once in my life I would love to reach my goal weight... Thank you in advance for you help and advice... at this point I'm about to go nuts, I can almost taste 199lbs. I want to see the scales below 200 lbs SOOOO BAD...

Thank you SO much....

Thank you so much for the Link Bigbeaz... very good read.... Sipping water now..... Maybe this has been my culprit !!!!!

Thank u all for the advice and encouragement.. I will admit this, I don't drink hardly any water, I didn't mean to leave that out in my initial plea for help. LOL.. I'm doing really good if I get 30oz a day ... I know, I know!!! But surely H20 isn't the problem???? Could it be as simple as water? I don't see how? but with that being said, I am going to make a valid effort up my intake of water..

Frankie, I was the same way.. My emotions were off the charts.. I promise it will pass. Just relax and try not to work yourself up to much. Every noise my tummy made every weird feeling , I panicked. I look back now and wish I wouldn't have stressed myself out as bad. I had my sleeve in Nov of this past year.. I will admit it took me several months to get past where you are now, but wish I wouldn't have put myself through all that... hang in there hun. P.S. thought I had made the biggest mistake of my life.... But now I know it was the best decision I could ever have made for myself. It just takes a while for your emotions and brain to catch u with your new tummy..
