Haven't been here in a loooong time! But I'm a year out and I'm having problems losing :(

So my last maybe 3 or 4 appointments with my surgeon were rather disappointing. In the laft 4-6 months I haven't lost ANYTHING (Maybe 5 pounds)!!!!!!!!!!! My surgeon's goal for me was to be under 200 when he saw me for my 1 year appointment. That was 12 February(2 days after the actual 1 year mark). He wasn't happy....so you know I wanted to cry right there! He must have seen it in my eyes because he quickly let me know that I didn't do bad, I just should have been further along. So I now have until May to lose 35 pounds and I am eating much better, I am getting in more Protein and I am exercising at least 3 days (pushing for 5) a week. My scale hasn't budged. My stomach seems to not want to do anywhere. I was losing inches at one point but I've been stuck in this size 16 for 4 months now.

I'm very frustrated. I need to know what to do to get this thing moving again. My goal was to be at my goal size (6) by my 1 year surgiversary. Now it's by 18 months but it's not going to happen if my hard work is not reaping any rewards. I almost feel like I shouldn't eat anything.....ever....and just go exercise. But that's not a good thing :(

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please :)

    You definitely need to keep eating! So you aren't losing weight as quickly as you'd like. So what? You aren't GAINING weight either! It sounds like you know what you need to do. You need to increase y

  • I am so glad to see this posting. I have actually gained back 25 lbs over the last 10 months or so. It's my fault because I have taken up "grazing" at night. Not a good thing. I also got back into cak

    Sounds like you and I are in the same boat. My last couple of visits were very discouraging as well. I am 9 months out with a weight loss of only 40lbs give or take a pound depending on the day. I wen

I'm too a year out I'm approx 17 months out, I was at a stall for 6 months at 185.4 until I gotten a second desk job, the first week was a breeze as I was meal prepping my lunches but as soon as the reality of working two jobs that quickly faded, I was grazing all day on vending machine foods chocolate, chips, candy, and high calorie coffees just to stay awake, until one day, I stepped on the scale and realized in 3 months I've gainined 5.3 pounds i was livid seeing that scale go from 185 to 190.8 I thought well its not that bad so I continued, now I'm 193.4 and started going vegetarian Jan 1st as of march 1 I stop eating junk food and soon will turn vegan for I graze on cheese. This has not been an easy journey I need to lose 20-30 pounds to feel comfortable with myself so I totally understand your struggles, so its back to the basis for me!
