Weight Loss Stall at 2 weeks Post-op

Good morning!

I had my 2 week post-op appointment on Tuesday. My incisions are healed and I had lost about 15 lbs since my pre-op appointment.

During the first week and a half my weigh loss seemed fairly consistant on a daily basis. Then all of a sudden nothing. I haven't lost anything in 5 days! Has anyone else had a similar experience?

I was getting so excited seeing the numbers drop on a daily basis that this feels like an emotional letdown.

I just switched to pureed foods and have been logging what I eat in my attempt to make the protein numbers (60-80g). I am eating on average 500-600 calories a day.

I had my gastric sleeve on Nov. 17. 1 week pre-op diet I lost 20lbs. 1 week post op diet I lost 10lbs. Right after surgery I started full liquids on direction of my doctor. I will be 4 weeks out on the 17th of December and I have not lost another pound since the end of the first week post-op! As a matter of fact, I have actually gained 2-3 lbs! I transitioned to pureed food, eat about 60 grams of protein and 800 calories. Well I dropped a couple of pounds so i hope I am on my way! I am drinking as much water as i can, usually 64 oz. I too was frustrated about my 2 1/2 week stall! I hope the weight starts falling off! When i said i eat 800 calories, i usually end up throwing up.
