Anyone lost 1/2 the weight and then can't loose more?

I had the sleeve 3 yrs ago and lost 25 lbs then my weight loss stopped. I've tracked my weight everyday since and seems no matter what I do I stay w/in 3 lbs. I've written everything I've eaten, counted calories, upped my treadmill time and cut my portion size. I get my Protein and Water in everyday. I eat healthy.

I'm wondering if age plays a part in it? I just turned 70 and am in great health. Since surgery my PB is normal as are all other tests. I just can't loose any more weight.

I've heard of set points with weight and wonder if mine has been cemented at this weight.

Any info or suggestions appreciated.

Thanks

Sherry

This is disappointing. I had the sleeve on Oct 10, 2016. I lost a total of 40 lbs since I started, but only 36 lbs since surgery. I haven't lost any weight since Dec. 2016. I was hoping, this isn't it. I turned 70 in February. I feel good, working out twice a week with a trainer. But I envisioned myself losing so much more.

I too was told I wasn't eating enough, well that's busted. I get 800 to 1,000 Cal / day and lose nothing. I wear my FitBit and always show more out than in, but no weight loss.

Now, I in process of dropping back to a liquid diet to try and jump start my loss again. I dropped off the forum for a time because I was so disgusted. I have my 6th month check-up on 4/24.

I've noticed that a lot of people post before and right after they get the surgery then drop off the forum. I know I've been one of them and it was because it was mostly newbys.

I wish more people would of answered my question.

I'll message you.
