That's terrible news! I hope you get some answers and soon! Take care of yourself. Thinking of you.

I think you're probably just being unrealistic with your personal rate of loss, and need to accept that you'll get there - it might just take you longer.
The only comment I have is, are you eating too many carbs? 700 calories and being a little low on protein points either to a lot of veggies or a lot of carbs (unless your protein goal is high?). I can get in 90g+ of protein in 700 calories these days.
My meals are pretty much ALL just a meat (2-2.5oz) and a veggie (1oz), or a meat (2-2.5oz) and cheese (.5oz).

Roz, so sorry to hear about your health issues. I don't know how you could have a healthier diet. You really stick with the bariatric plan. Keep us posted.
I didn't make my 100 grams of protein today but close.....72 grams plus how much there is in 2 beef ribs. My new favorite yogurt is Oikos chocolate and coffee. I add some chopped walnuts and love it. It has 15 grams of protein.
Today:
Premier Protein - 30 grams
Banana w/peanut butter - 7 grams
Chopped salad; yucky frozen lunch with chicken & rice and way too many peppers
Greek Yogurt - 15 grams
Premier Clear Protein - 20 grams
2 BBQ ribs

I keep looking at the calendar, looking at my current weight, and trying to make sense of all of this.
My "smart" scale is showing a continuing drop in body fat, and an increase in muscle mass (I am pushing my activity pretty hard).
Measurements are meh... some big drops initially then, like the weight loss, next to nothing.
I'm measuring and recording everything I eat and drink, the good bad and ugly. My weekly intake averages have been at a steady 700 calories a day. I do struggle to get in enough liquids, and I'm often a little low on protein.
I'm four weeks into a 5K training program and "running" three times a week, about a mile and a half at a VERY SLOW PACE of like 17.5 minute miles. Yes, that would be slower than most people WALK a mile. I'm trying to get a minimum of 10K steps a day (this week was bad as I've been sick). I've installed an elliptical machine under my desk at work and I've been doing ten minute batches of work on it every hour or so. Sometimes 20 minutes at a go. My thighs are soar after a few minutes of the elliptical so I'm assuming it's working (and my pulse does go up some while I'm doing it).
Please give me some advice on how I can kick things into gear! I want to lose at LEAST ten to fifteen pounds a month over the next three months.
Thanks!
I lost 122# with NO exercise and have kept it off for 7 years, with NO exercise, none.
It is not about how much exercise you do, it is about what you put in your mouth.
Unfortunately, YOU can't force a certain amount of weight loss a month. I never lost 10# a month but I went on to lose 122# just the same.
Thank You! I miss you posting....

I've left messages (two) at the surgeon's office. One with questions for the NUT the other with concerns about the lack of pounds coming off. I haven't gotten responses from either.
