I was told to aim for at least 1.5 Litres a day.

Hi Jue, You aren't drinking enough fluids and you aren't taking in enough calories - and I bet you aren't taking anywhere near enough protein. Don't forget that this op is only a tool, it won't do it all for you. Good luck

What op did you have?

Hi i was the same with low weight loss as are many others on this site i stayed the same for 4 weeks and then it started to move. Try not to get to down, i even thought my operation had failed. Keep strong it will move we are all different so it can go at different paces for all of us. Good luck and let us know how you are getting on xxx

... I've been exactly the same Juem. I haven't lost any weight in the past 11 days and I've actually put on .75lb. I'm so upset! . I constantly feel sick at the thought of any food or drink, that if I think about it too much I could actually be sick ..... the result of this is that I'm hardly eating or drinking anything . I'm really worried. I've been researching "starvation mode" on the web and I think this is where I am at a the mo. I know I should be eating but I can't :cry: I think I may need to revert back to the liquid stage until this nausea stage passes. sooooo depressed :wave_cry:

sorry for the whinge but at a real low at the mo and my mood not helping the family festive spirit!

For what its worth try and relax. I also stalled and went back to liquid for a week and now aim for about 800-1200 cals aday and it is coming off again. As daft as it sounds up your fluid and up your cals and i think you will start to see results.
