yes I include everything. I'd like more calories but I don't lose weight lol!

Well the weight loss has stalled, lol. I was just going to wait it out but lowering calories makes more sense. Maybe I need a counselor after all.

So I've finally managed to have a day under 900 cals and less than 70g carbs. I was also motivated enough to do 20 minutes on the cross trainer and it felt good. If I had my trainers on I could have kept going I think.
Technically I should be in deficit I'm hoping I can break the stall in a couple of days if I keep at it.

Keep chin up. I have had different surgery to you but only have a mX of 800 cals and I don't feel left out at meal times. I eat 100g of yogurt for breakfast ( natural with or without 2-3,berries chopped and nuts) or 2 boiled egg whites and half a slice of toast, a small flask of homemade soup (homemade so I can see what goes in) or 3-4 water baked biscuits, ham, few nuts. Evening meal chilli, half a small jacket, chicken in gravy, chicken in pepper sauce, chicken curry, homemade burger infact anything just small amounts. Drink wise 1-2 milky drinks, 4-5 pints of water, 2-3 week black coffee all my food depends on my protein and fluid ensuring I intake minimum of 60g a day protein so fluids change daily may need an extra milky drink to boost. Some days I've got to 80+ g of protein, I'm just paranoid about hairloss so want to do as much as possible to keep protein levels up as I was told it will help.

I'm so happy!!!! Finally broke the stall!!!! I was beginning to wander if I was one of those people who the surgery just didn't work for. It must have been the carbs and overall calorie count, being too high. My carbs were between 100-120, now I'm trying to keep it at below 70. I'm going to stick to all the dieticians advice as I don't want to go through that again. Although it was then that suggested my max could be 1200... Oh well at least I know what to do when I want to maintain 
. Thanks for the support.

Completely agree. Helps me to see where the calories are adding up to as the day goes on before it's too late.

Little bit worried about tomorrow's weight. I didn't poorly today but passed 1000 cals and wondering what the consequences will be.... Exercised a bit and really enjoyed it. Family joined in. When I had head hunger I made a salad and had some sugar free dilute juice then some jelly. Weekends are rough.

Check your discharge notes Marz as mine states 60g minimum on protein.

A little tip I was given - eat the protein first, no matter what's on the plate. I used to eat from least preferred to favourite - ie veg to meat - now it's meat, veg, carbs. This way if I get full after protein and veg I know it's ok not to eat the carbs.
Also if I feel I need a little boost I will grab some ham from the fridge, rather than anything else. I have no problem getting the protein in
