Suggestions

I had my surgery 6/5 (6 weeks ago) I lost 16 pounds on pre op diet. I have lost 17.8 since surgery and I am STUCK at 220. Scale has been fluctuating between 220.8 and 220 for last 10 days. I am getting 64 oz of fluids and 70 grams of protein daily mostly from protein shakes, Greek yogurt, beans, tuna, string cheese and just added chicken. Trying to keep carbs under 60g. In the last 2 weeks I am getting about 600 calories a day. I am feeling very discouraged and seeking advice to help get the scale moving. Help!!!

Try increasing your calories for a day or two. I did it after being stalked for 2 1/2 weeks. My Dr did tell me to expect to have periods of wt loss followed by no weight loss and after you break the stall you start to lose again. Keep the faith!

Thank you the suggestion and encouragement! I will keep doing what I'm doing and try increasing my calories for a couple days! :-)
