Ok, I've put this post off but I'm open to hear answers

You're not wrong - e.g. 1/2 cup tuna, 1/2 cup pudding. On the mushy stage I was eating 1 cup total per meal. Now  I am on 1200 calories a day -- just food groups. Sorry about the confusion :)

Hey you almost skinny thing you..... try changing your routine a little....maybe eat a little more one day and a little less the next...I believe the body just gets used to what we're giving it and kind of sits still for a while and stabilizes. Also....drink more water if you can...it always helps me...I generally have about 75 to 80 oz.....and it also has the benefit of minimizing wrinkles...........at least I always thought that. And.....exercise truly helps.........you may not see weight loss at first (because you're building muscle which as you know is heavier than fat) but you will definitely see inches lost in a matter of weeks. I'm headed back to the gym next week...I've missed it this summer because of some pain in my side and back...and have also been swimming for exercise, but my pool closes after Monday, so it's back to the machines for me....and I'm going to try Pilates too. I hope this helps..........and see, I didn't give you any of the stock answers either.....I didn't want to get into trouble...........LOL Anita

Hi Krista: I understand your frustration.   I did the same thing.  I still don't have any explanation as to WHY my body did what it did, but I went through quite a frustrating time of not losing after about the 4th week after surgery.  THen, one day....3 lbs were just GONE.  The next day...another pound.  Then I went a couple of weeks again with nothing.  It has been the story of my life since the band.  I dont' understand it, and probably never will.  Just hang in there girl...It WILL come off. PS....I used to say the same thing about WW. LOL

I was exactly where you are...lost 13 pounds the first 2 weeks, then not losing a single pound but really doing good on eating less, and wasn't exercising. Then I went to Curves and workouted...the next day, I dropped a pound! Now I exercise all the time! It really helps at my age...almost 50.  That's all I'm going to say...excerise!  If you yell at me I'll start crying!

Oh my ~ I didn't mean to come off that scary. Congrats on your success and I will take your suggestion. I hope this time next week, I'll be back eating crow.

How about this one...I went almost 3 months, yes I said 3 months losing ZERO, NADA ZILCH...nothing!  But I was losing inches...the scale wasn't moving but my pants were getting bigger.  I also agree with Trisha...I won't lose if I'm not under 1000 calories a day.   Oh and just to be smart...you know this is a time of healing right?  Tonya

You are lucky that I am a taw-aholic :) 3 months? Point that gun this way. I'll keep on keeping on .... thanks for listening and replying Tonya!

I doubt it will be 3 months for you...you are much more of a Food Nazi with yourself than I was.  The exercise will help and seriously, you are still losing your body just doesn't want to tell you yet. 

Hi Krista! Have you had a fill yet? I didn't lose anything in the last 14 days, so I made an appointment for a fill (which I got yesterday). Hoping that's going to help me reduce my intake, not feel so hungry and get me losing again.

Hi Jane - no I haven't had a fill and my first appt isn't 'til the end of Sept (7 weeks or so out). I have 3 cc in a 10 cc band. I know I'm not eating too much ~ I just struggle with how I can eat so little and not lose you know?
