Is it possible at 3.5 months

I am 3.5 months exercise 4 times a week. Each time I stall for more than a week I increased calories by 100-150 a day for the next week. Stalls would stop and I'd keep losing. I did this from 500 calories and now I'm at 900-1000 calories a day. I do balanced macros with high focus on protein and water.

Everyone is different so i just tried different ways for a week at a time until I found what works for me.

I'm the same time frame out as you. I have weeks/2 weeks where I lose very little or not at all. Then the following weeks I'll drop what seems like a ridiculous amount of weight. I just broke a "stall" (it was too short to really call it that). I lost .4lbs last week and I BUSTED ASS at the gym. This week, I will be down 4-5lbs. It's totally normal!

Like others have said, you might want to consider dropping your calories back a bit and checking on acid. I do get hungry, but not until I've been a loooong time without food and I can never say it's physical hunger vs head hunger. I also could two bites and "resolve" the hunger.

Sure - if you're eating more calories than your body is using it is definitely possible that you could be done losing weight.

What, exactly, are you eating each day? Give us an example so we can trouble shoot for you. Are you measuring what you eat and logging it into MyFitnessPal or similar?

Weight loss is consumption driven. It's energy based, but also hormone based. What we eat matters just as much (and sometimes more) than how much we eat.

We can also lose fat without losing weight. I lose inches and not pounds sometimes. I've gone down three shoe sizes and four bra cup sizes total, for instance, and some of that has happened without the scale moving.

Most of us are successful tracking everything we eat. If I do not write everything down I very quickly find things I should not eat, well, get eaten. Carbs in particular are problematic, since they are so easy to consume and almost all are sliders.

Inflammation also masks weight loss. When I have an autoimmune flare up, forget any pounds moving on the scale.

If I eat higher carbs, typically over 75g total/40g net, forget weight loss, too. Even at low calories I will typically retain water and not really lose.

If I don't go out and stay active I don't lose weight. Exercise helps largely, not because of burning calories, but because it gives us a focus for our energy. I only eat 2-3x a day on Vyvanse and exercise, compared to before (6-8x day)

How much more do you want to lose? Can you post a daily food log?

Ugh inflammation. My weight is totally unhappy with my kidney stone :P

Forgot to add: I have worked with multiple anorexic patients, many of whom eat as little, or far less, than we do. I assure you they are not maintaining their weight. They continually drop it. The question is: if starvation mode exists 1) why doesn't it kick in for WLS patients that habitually eat 500 calories a day and religiously track their consumption, and 2) why doesn't it ever manifest in anorexic patients?

Or cancer patients, for that matter, who sometimes eat only a few hundred calories a day without TPN or outside nutrition. They progressively lose weight.

I have yet to see compelling peer-reviewed evidence that starvation mode exists. It might I guess? I've been looking for years without finding it, though.

Well you see this is a good statement. In my mind I feel as though eating 800-900 calories a day over a long period of time will donme more damage. I think about starvation mode and how if it exists and I think that I up my calories daily then I'm helping myself. I think actually I may be hurting myself more young calories.

Starvation mode really is crap. I've seen a bunch of studies that looked at people who were convinced they had wrecked metabolisms, and couldn't lose on very low calories. They were put in a controlled environment, and fed a precisely measured low calorie diet. Every single one of them lost. Every single one.

You admitted to loosly tracking your calories. If you think you are eating 1000 most likely you are eating much more- probably 1200-1400 which is what many of us consume on maintenance. Get out the measuring cups and food scale. Track every bite. Be honest with yourself if you want to be successful long-term. You can do it.

Starvation mode is a myth. It's sad that there are medical professionals still perpetuating it.

I was looking through your posting history and it seems that your NUT advised you to eat 800 calories/day? Did that change?
