Well, not sure what surgery you had, you didn't list which, your profile isn't updated.

Posting the same question all over isn't the best way to get answers sadly.

Looks like you were already given plenty of ideas on how to get back in the race, but on top of all of the assistance already provided, Have you talked with your surgeon or nutritionist recent?

No idea what your stats are, but odds are your BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate) has decreased. It decreases as we get older and it decreases as we get thinner. Your BMR is the amount of calories you require just to be alive (Think, in a coma, alive but not moving) if you are exercising, getting your 64-128oz of Water and are monitoring your food intake, tracking your calories... then it's pretty simple math. If Burn = more than Consumed then you will lose weight. So, check that BMR https://www.active.com/fitness/calculators/bmr Track your intake, Track your exercise and make sure that you burn more calories than you eat per day. And drink more water! Our bodies cannot process fat if it doesn't have enough water to do so!

Why would you give up your medicine and B12? I’m assuming the medicine is Vitamins? Surely, I would hope you wouldn’t stop a prescription medication from the doctor, just because you aren’t loosing. This doesn’t make any since. Do you want to suffer malnutrition? This won’t make you thinner. Also, vitamins won’t make you gain. You haven’t provided sufficient info for us to help you. Example of diet, logged by tracking app, exercise, Water log, exercise routine. Age, surgery, past medical history (i.e. endocrine disorders, PCOS, ect.)
If you want help, put the effort in to get it. And stop posting multiple threads looking for attention or different answers.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
