Rock* got a reaction from Inner Surfer Girl in Almost a year out and only lost 64lbs January 25, 2016

Talk to your dr or nutritionist. I was having the same problem and found that I wasn't getting in enough calories. I was eating around 1000 to 1200 calories a day. With my height weight and daily exercise I should have been eating 1500 to 1700 depending on how hard I worked out. So I embraced it (it was really hard to eat that much, physically and psychologically) upped my calories and the weight started falling off again. I think we spend so much time focusing on low cal diets while we're heavy that we forget that we need to adjust our lifestyle for our new bodies. Good luck! Don't give up

Who knew that in just 5 short months I could feel so amazing! This surgery has changed my life in ways I could have never imagined. I am thankful everyday to be able to say that I am actually living my life and not just existing. Down 76 pounds since surgery and went from a sIze 18/20 to a size 12. Just 30 pounds to goal!! ????
