I'm confused by this whole process. Pre-op and in my days of dieting I found I could

eat 1000 calories and easily lose 2-3 lbs a week. Now that I am eating barely 600 a day (I am 5 weeks post-op) you would think the weight would drip off of me, but of course it hasn't. Why is it so different now? I read lots of posts from people who feel they are losing too slowly, but I honestly didn't pay any attention to them BEFORE my surgery. Now, I am so comforted to know there are so many others sharing my frustration. Tell me, when will the weight start dripping off?? Does it make a difference to get the protein in with fish/chicken rather than with the shakes?
