New Bandster frustrated by low weight loss!

mrsinto...thank you! We were banded close to the same date and our weight loss is similar so far. I'm learning to navigate this page and will post profile info ASAP! 72 lbs to go! Good luck on your weight loss journey!

I just started the Couch to 5K app, so maybe that will help with my progress.

I just started this today too! This is my third time trying it. Both other times I ended up pregnant at week 5. (The irony...) There is NO WAY thats an option this time around so I'm breaking that juju and plan to actually finish it!

Thanks Armonet! I have another 50 to get to my first goal. Once I'm there, I'll reassess if I want/need to drop anymore :-)

You lost 28 already??? Wow. That's great. I am out of surgery 10 months and not down even that far. I have trouble comparing my loss too.

missmudd, yes! I was frustrated because I didn't think that was normal. From what everyone is saying, it seems to be though. I've only had 1 fill, so I'll see what happens.

Thank you Sharpie! My surgeon says that slow weight loss is best, but I guess I was expecting a miracle. I want to lose 100 lbs in all and I know I'll get there! You're doing GREAT! Good luck on your last 35 lbs!!!

I'm also looking to lose around 100 lbs. 120 would be fantastic actually. No one really noticed the weight loss until I dropped around 40 lbs. so don't worry if at 28 lbs. down, no one is noticing. They will...believe me, they will. I'm now down 63 1/2 lbs. and folks are noticing...but like I said...it takes a while plus your old clothes will hide the weight loss. Wait until you are wearing new and smaller sizes.
