Remember too it will be nor al to bounce up a size.

So I won't be a size 0 forever? I don't mind being a bigger size. When I was size 4 I felt perfect but I kept getting smaller. I just want some hips & ass & boobs.

Mami, if I remember correctly, you maintain a food log (MFP?). Have you tried increasing your daily calorie goal by 100-200 calories for a week and seeing what impact that has on your weight? I've dropped lower than my goal a few times and a moderate increase in my calorie intake has always got me back on track. Logging has worked equally well for me for weight gain, weight loss or maintenance.

Try weight training. Get into a gym and start lifting weights. Muscle weighs more and will help in maintaining weight loss.

Yes I still have a open food log. I'm under 1200 per day but I do try to eat as much calories in a meal as I can.

Perhaps your body is telling you that isn't enough? Consider increasing that to 1300 or 1400 for a week. If you maintain or lose weight, increase it again. If you gain weight, keep it at that level until you're at the weight you want to be at and then adjust it down slightly until you're stable. The cool thing about calories is that you can increase or decrease them without changing the volume of what you eat - just the food choices that you make. There's no "try" grasshopper, just "do". Lol!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
