    happybuddy got a reaction from Valentina in Please help me solve this very painful puzzle   
    Thanks, everyone. I do have the feeling I should eat more. It is just a scary thing to try. I'll keep everyone posted on what doc and nutritioniist says.

    HappyBuddy I can't offer any knowledge to the puzzle. However I wanted you to know you are not alone. The same amount of weight loss happened to me in the first 10 days of my Jan 26th surgery. I had the three week stall. After the stall I lost 8 more pounds only this week to gain 6 of them back, I am 6 weeks out and even eating less than you as every time I eat food I get a terrible pain under the left breast area. Eating is like 1 1/2 to 2 ounces or maybe 1/2 cup depending on the food. I am too old for the puzzle of the period.
    Some great suggestions were given and I hope you solve this puzzle real soon as I know the emotional feeling your expressing. I am right there with you.

    You aren't failing. Keep tracking, and use that info to meet with a decent nutritionalist.
    I am unclear on the intensity of your exercise, but suspect that over time you may need more calories. 9 weeks, it is still hard to get much in.
    Are you meeting hydration, Protein and carb targets? Try to not eat late at night.
    I don't know about prozak, i took it for about 2 weeks when I was depressed after my mother died and it made me insane, so didn't stay with it long enough to assess impact on weight loss. Some anti depressant drugs are known for weight gain as a side effect.
    I didn't catch the painful puzzle - do you mean emotional pain over the slower weight loss or something else?
    i know I am not offering much here - but I think the key is to take a breath, keep following the program and in time, the weight loss will come. I too failed a million times, including with the lapband, so I understand the terror, but it isn't very productive or helpful... hang in there!
