Hi there! I am 10 weeks post op. I had my surgery on May 1, 2015 and quickly lost 37 lbs in that first month. Since the beginning of June I have lost maybe 5 lbs. I'm getting really frustrated as I am following my diet by the book, exercising like it's my 2nd job and not seeing the scale move! I understand that muscle weighs more but I am hoping that others have been in this situation and have some advice.

I also hit a plateau. I looked at my calorie intake. As my meal volume increased, I concentrated on eating high Protein meals. That way I was able to reduce the number of Protein shakes I consumed each day. Your protein requirement is the amount of protein you get from your meals combined with the amount of protein from your protein supplements. I was able to reduce the number of protein shakes, which in turn reduced the total number of calories (meals, protein supplements, fluids). Then I began to lose weight again.

As you progress, you will need to adapt and change continually until you pass the weight loss phase and transition into the maintenance phase.

Thanks for the input. I will give it a try
