Easter Weight Loss Challenge
Pinkpeonies1 replied to vsgSarah3's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I had gastric bypass August 2015 and usually go with a goal of about 10-15 lbs per challenge. The first couple of months I lost 25 lbs then it slowed down a lot for me. I'd say start with a low goal and if you lose more great versus starting with a high number and feeling disappointed. Just remember everybody loses at different rates and not all bodies are the same. Some like me have less weight to lose while others have more so be patient with yourself. In my case, although my weigh loss has slowed down significantly I'm still losing... I'm at 80 lbs after 6 month. I think that's within the percentage my doctor said I would lose. Whatever you do, do not compare your weight loss with others. You will hit stalls or plateaus but they will pass. Good luck in your journey. -

I was getting bad cramps too about 6 weeks postop. Doc checked my blood levels and iron level was low. Once i up my dosage cramps went away. -

Official August thread! Where are you guys?
Pinkpeonies1 replied to Faithoftheheart's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thank you tiggerbug for the encouragement. You too are doing great. Men typically lose weight faster than women so that's also a contributing factor. Keep up the good work and pat yourself on the back for trying to squeeze in the exercise. Even if weekly, you're doing it and it helps. Niki, keep it up. I know you also exercise and that's great. I'm 168 today and I'm happy I'm still making progress. My GW is 135-140 but trying not to get to hung up on that. I'm shedding inches so whichever arrives first, my ideal weight or ideal clothing size. Good luck everybody, keep up the great job.
