Post Bariatric surgery 2008~ No where near my goal, I go up and down~ Need Help and support

Options
Hi everyone, I am looking for some support and ideas. I eat around 1000 to 1200 calories a day. Not a perfect diet of food, I am working on it. I go up and down on the scales. from 245, to 259. In the past two weeks I am back down to 252. I just can't seem to get the scales to go past 245. And I really need to do this.

Have any of you gotten off the honeymoon after the surgery and struggled to lose anyone. What did you do to get back on track? I had my surgery on July 1, 2008. And when the weight stopped it stopped, I never made it to goal. I started my weight loss journey at 416. So I am proud that I have not gained it all back, but I so need to keep losing.

Any ideas? To be honest I was doing well until my doctor told me to stop the shakes and get back on whole foods. However, even with shakes the weight is not coming off.
