I have my 1 month post op appointment coming up soon so I will talk to them... I eat most of the things my nutrition gave me... I drink about 64oz of water a day. Work out about an hour a day. I eat mostly egg white with fat free cheese with sugar free peaches, then for lunch I eat fat free oaik yogurt then for dinner I eat Lima beans so idk what am doing wrong..

Hi Swanzy- what type of surgery did you have? Have you lost anything at all? I'd recommend seeing your Dr., like Diane said. If you work out a lot, could you be adding muscle weight? Are you losing any inches or toning up your body? The fat you have lost could be displaced with muscle. This is one for your dr.

I had the gastric sleeve, people are telling me am losing and yes am toning , but when I stand on the scale the numbers are not going down! So am worried

Use a measuring tape instead of the scale. That's what the doctor told me. Are your clothes looser?

My clothes are lose, apparently am not eating enough calories, I never knew not eating enough calories can prolong your weight loss
