I need some help , It is almost my 1 year anniversary and at about 7 months out I stopped losing, I started at 213 and lost to 167 then gradually stopped and even started gaining, I have tried everything to break this plateau, I have never had trouble eating anything, never dumped and have to watch every bite I put in my mouth, I walk 2 miles a day but nothing has helped, has anybody experience this or have any suggestions for me, I go back to my doc next week, is it possible my outlet has stretched, nothing I do helps and I am getting really depressed and frustrated with it. How many calories should I be eating ? What amounts are you eating at meals ???? Please help..... Bama

Hi; I would be talking / yelling at my WLS doctor if it were me. All I can say is that everyone is different. Hope you get some answers. I know; not much advice here. mark g.

Gee, Bama, I don't know...but to answer your questions... I started out at 211.5, so we were about the same. I'm still losing (and trying not to)...down to 123 now. As far as amounts, I can eat a whole Lean Cuisine now. I eat anything I want, except really greasy foods, probably about 1000 cal\day, maybe 1200. I do dump occasionally, and have diarrhea 3-4 times a week. One thing to consider...are you "grazing"? Do you drink sweetened drinks? These are supposed to be the 2 ways you can defeat this surgery. I wish you luck in getting back on track. You might try attending a support group meeting (if you aren't already). JCbelowgoal
