Not losing anymore weight and still get hungry :(

I got sleeved on April 22nd so I'm almost 5 weeks in. I still get hungry (especially after 7pm shortly after dinner) and crave carbs which I only indulged in twice. My start weight before the surgery was 267 and now I am 243, but have been stuck on that weight for almost 2 weeks now. Am I doing something wrong? I feel I am eating everything I'm suppose to and the only time I had trouble consuming all my fluids was for the first 2-3 weeks. I walk everyday and even started going to LA Fitness just a few days ago and I'm still the same weight. What should I do?

That isn't really any information for people to help you and we want to help you.

How many grams of Protein per day?

If you are logging your food, this is really easy to answer.

What was your start weight? What is your current weight?

Edited by OutsideMatchInside

Eat Protein. Lots and lots of protein. If you're craving cabs try saltines to help with the edge.

Are you on any anti acid medication? It might be wearing off at 7pm.. and thats what is making you feel hungry. With the sleeve our hungry hormone has been taken out and we are not meant to feel hungry, i would go and see the surgeon about having another dose at 6pm that is of cause if you ARE already taking the medication to prevent stomach acid. I have had that 'hunger' feeling a few times but surgeon and forums have explained to me its stomach acid.

Most of us ae told to aim for 80-100 grams of protein, so that might be part of your problem. You may not be getting enough. You also didn't say how many calories you are getting. If you are exercising, and only eating protein shakes, you probably aren't getting enough calories. I pushed hard to get up over 800 calories by the time I started exercising and then about 1100 calories before I started doing any more than just walking.
