Three weeks out from surgery and have stopped losing weight

I Started my weight loss after surgery at 398 lbs. At 2 weeks i was down to 371.  I am still there a week later. I was changed to a soft foods diet by my doctor at my initial 2 week diet. I have attempted to keep up the same activity level each day.  My calories sit around 500 a day.  Anyone have any suggestion have I possibly sent my body into starvation mode with such low Calories.

Welcome to the ubiquitous 3-week stall, James!  If you do a search on this site for "3 week stall" you will get several thousand hits because the topic has been asked and answered ad nauseum.  

P.S. Starvation mode is a myth.  I'm certain you are doing fine and will soon find yourself losing weight again.  Read all the information on 3-week stalls and don't sweat it.  You'll be fine 

Totally normal - welcome to the club!  (And starvation mode is a myth.)

omg...i thought I was alone.... I thought something was wrong.  I too am 3+ weeks post op and have only lost 1 pound this past week.  I have been so good about what and when I eat and could not understand why the weight stopped coming off... I am down 25 pounds post op and 22 pre-op... looking forward to the continued weight loss.

I am the same position.  My weight loss has stopped.  I started at 398 pre-op on July 8th.  I stopped losing weight on July 29th.  I thought I was alone too.  

STAY OFF THE SCALE!!!

WEIGH YOURSELF ONLY AT YOUR SURGEON'S OFFICE WHEN YOU GO FOR YOUR CHECKUP.  

Just do what you need to do;  eat protein first, drink lots of water, walkwalkwalk.

Check clothing fit for reassurance.  

You'll be fine.  Don't stress yourself.

I am three weeks out and only lost 11lb the fist week.  haven't lost a lb in the last two.    I am frustrated
