I had my surgery 13 months ago and went from 350 to 230. I have been stuck for months at 230. It doesn't matter what I eat and what I do I absolutely cannot go past 230. I walk 2 miles a day, still getting all my Protein in and I average about 750 calories a day. Can someone PLEASE help me and tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Eat more food, jeez! Why are you limiting yourself to 750 calories a day at 13 months out? That's insanity! Your body is in starvation mode and clinging to every single calorie for dear life. Literally! I bet you $100 that if you bump that up to 1200 or 1300 calories a day, the scale will start going down again. Just make sure it's high protein/low carb foods.

I'm not doing it on purpose. I just eat what I eat that's what it averages too. Heres what scares me though. Someone told me the same exact thing about a month ago so I was like cool, I'll increase my calories. So for two weeks I did. I weighed after those 2 weeks and gained 6 pounds. After going back to what I have always originally have done I lost those 6 pounds within a matter of days but I'm literally back at square one with weighing 230. It will NOT go in the 220s to save my life.

Two weeks might not have been long enough for your body to come out of starvation mode. Your metabolism is incredibly low right now if you are maintaining on 750 a day. Of course you will immediately gain weight when you increase your calories, because your metabolism isn't going to speed up instantaneously. It takes to for it to catch on to the idea of "hey, I'm not starving anymore".

this tells me it was Water weight and not FAT. and remember the goal isn't to just loose weight, but to loose excess fat. I agree with @@JamieLogical 2 weeks was probably not long enough for your body to trust you to keep eating.
