What am I doing wrong?

I'm 5 month post op and have not lost a single pound since 3 month post op. I exercise 5 days a week, 30 minutes cardio, 30 minutes weights. I'm averaging 48-72oz of water daily, about 80+ of protein and 700-900 calories.

I feel so defeated! [emoji20]

    Too much exercise, not enough calories to support that level of activity. How many carbs? Do you weigh everything you eat? Do you track in an app? I'd also raise to the protein to over 100

Do you weigh everything you eat? Do you track in an app? I'd also raise to the protein to over 100. 1 gram for each pound of lean mass is a good goal.

I'm not sure about carbs, just been monitoring calories and protein. Yes, I measure out most of what I eat. I keep track in a journal.

If you aren't getting the results you want, WEIGH, not measure everything. Measuring is inaccurate. I weigh everything, including condiments. If I eat a piece of meat with a bone, I weigh it with the bone and I weigh the bone afterward and subtract the weight. Use an app. Track everything, every single thing. You are over/underestimating something. At 5 months you should still be losing at a pretty good pace. In fact months 4-6 are usually some of the highest loss months. So you need to evaluate what you are doing wrong. Have you talked to your team? What was your starting BMI?
