    I'm only 5 weeks out. My plan has me eating 500-800. By 2 months, I can go up to 1000-1200.

@Sleeve_journey_2018_uk To be honest, I have no idea how much I consume in a day. I don't track. That said, 1000-1200 seems about right for 6 months post op. Why are you concerned? Are you gaining? Another stall?

Not gaining but it's not going as fast as others, I lose half a llb a week fir the last 2 months (average) And I've been obsessing about people on instagram all eating 6 - 800 a day at my stage!! I don't think i could go that low without being hungry all the time?!

Mistake #1, don't compare yourself to anyone else, ever. Even identical twins won't lose at the same rate even if they did everything exactly the same. Just worry about what you are doing, if you are still losing and are hitting all your metrics... then stop stressing / worrying about it.

I have been stalling a lot since 3rd month i am also an obsessive daily weigher ( I know its wrong and im trying to stop)

I weigh in daily as well. I track body fat as well as weight. It's easy to get flustered and frustrated. You just need to remember that, only you will lose and gain like you. That everyone else is on their own path/ride. Just worry about your own!

I'm 6 months out and eat 800-1000 cal/day. The adviser at the hospital thinks I should be at 1000-1200, so it sounds like you're perfect.

I'm around 9 months having 1600 to 1800 with 200 to 250g of protein. Carbs are still fairly low, likely around 100g

I’m barely 5 weeks out and can only get in 300-400 calories.

I'm almost 4 months out and I eat between 700 and 1000 calories a day.

1100 to 1200 at 4 months for me, I would say you are right on target.
