It worked for the first six months, then nothing. Keep losing the same 4 - 5 pounds.
Been driving me nuts, am trying to up my calories to about 1200 to see if that helps. Down a few pounds in the last few days, but we'll see.
Been following the program, work out 3 - 4 times per week, no liquid calories except for the protein powder in my coffee. No sweets, low fat, was at around 800 calories per day.
I still have great restriction so am not eating large quantities of anything. I get so much conflicting advice it is driving me nuts. The doc says don't listen to my nut (who works for him), just get in the protein. But, I can get the protein in with very low calories but you do need some fat and good carbs to fuel the body. On here, I hear everything.
I am an analyst, also mild Asperger's, so cope better with some defined, black and white rules.
I am going to have a Bod Pod analysis on Tuesday, also have my 1 year surgiversary appt with the surgeon (afraid to face his disappointment..) so I will have lab results and the Bod Pod results. Maybe then I can figure out what I need to do to beat this monster. It is so hard watching others at six months out and down over 100 pounds and so many clothes sizes when I can still wear my old clothes. Yes, they are loose, but still wearable.
Everyone's a critic
