I'M DESPERATE--Can someone help me PLEASE!!!

I am 8.5 weeks post op and for the past 4 weeks I have lost 1 lb. a week. After the first week of this I started drinking 9 glasses of water a day instead of 5-6, getting at least 60 gr. protein/day, and eating 1000-1200 cal./day (up from around 800). The doctor's office told me to do this because my body was in "starvation mode". Nevertheless, it has continued for 3 more weeks! How can a 293 lb. person not lose weight on this many calories!? I am so frustrated, and the dietician does not call me back. PLEASE HELP!!!
