[quote=Anonymous]I'm seeking some advice. Overweight mid 30s guy. I've been down this road before. Lost 30-45 lbs several times in my life. I'm 6' my idea weight on my frame would be 185-190.

This past year I hit my heaviest again (236lbs.)

For 11 weeks now, I've created a 500-750 calorie deficit each day. Eaten as lean and clean as you can. And worked out (a mix of sprint HIIT, cardio, and weights) 5-6 days a week.

Yes, I've lost weight but not much. Just 10 lbs down in 11 weeks. Given how extreme and perfect I've been that seems off to me. It's barely 1 lb per week. Given the calorie deficit it doesn't feel like a plateau.

I should add too that I had a kidney stone last week, spent the night in the ER, and ate like a bird for 3 days. Nothing sounded good. I gained 3 lbs!!!! Like how is that even possible? Yes I am constipated from the narcotics, but that wouldn't lead to a 3 lb gain would it.

I've scheduled an appt. with my doctor, but I'm not sure what to ask him to test for. I've never had this issue when trying to lose weight. I've been told not to restrict anymore calories than I already am.

Please advise. Only other thing I can think of is I'm under tremendous stress at home and at work, but calories in calories out no?[/quote]
