WL slowdown at six months post op
Is it possible...that I'm not eating enough protein? Since August 22nd, I've lost just 4 lbs. I don't understand why. I do not eat rice or pasta; two or three times a week I may have 1/2 a slice of toast (wheat or rye) with butter with over easy eggs, but any other carbs are negligible such as in nuts, cottage cheese, HWC, fruit two or three times a week, and so on. What do you think?
Here are my numbers for today from MyFitnessPal.com. Please weigh in with your thoughts (yes, pun intended *grin* ): (the "daily goals" are not accurate. I'm having trouble adjusting them as it's based on a percentage instead of a flat number.) Also--I'm 5'10" and a large woman.

Do you post on the Bites & Vits daily? It may help you to see what others are eating. Have you measured? Your body could be just catching up in a little stall. Check your measurements. You can also change up and have a very carby day to see if that tells your body that food is plentiful, still get your protein in though.
