Sad to say, I am glad to see someone is having the same problems as me. I do not enjoy eating still. (amost 4 month post) There are only a few foods that actually go down smoothly and I find enjoyable. Protein Shakes and smoothies are still the go to for me. Plus a chopped salad from Subway always does the trick.

I started lifting again as well so I liked to believe that was part of not seeing the scale move. My doc really wants his patients to stick to 3 meals a day but there is no way in hell I can get enough Protein in only 3 meals. I can with a Protein Shake but it feels better to eat 6 smaller meals rather than trying to push things with 3 larger ones. I'm curious to see if the trend continues through the week. It didn't take a ton of additional calories. I only added in about 200-250 per day. It really is trial & error at times.

I hit a stall about 6-7 weeks after surgery. Only lost a pound in a 2 1/2 week spell. I started to up my calories a bit more and focused on getting my Protein from food rather than having to rely on a Protein Shake, so that did mean eating more smaller meals through the day. Knocking on wood but since doing that over the past week the scale has started to move again.

Keep in mind that what works for one may not work for another. Sometimes it just requires patience. If you aren't doing a food journal then start one. It helps to know for sure where you are at with your diet rather than guessing.
