dylanmiles23 2,198 Posted August 17, 2013 I am losing slow but then I don't exercise enough and sometimes eat the wrong foods. I am not worried as long as I don't gain. I have been about the same weight for 3 months and my doctor is fine with that, too. How do your clothes fit? Mine get bigger and that is a loss. 2 2muchfun and catfish87 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KAATNS 1,473 Posted August 18, 2013 I think mine is slow, but I figure a slow loss is better than no loss. I've lost 40 pounds in 7 months. 2 MandyJ and 2muchfun reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dawalsh 919 Posted August 18, 2013 I've lost over 55 lbs in 8 months.i'm a slow loser according to my primary care physician. He is not happy with my weight loss at all. I'm thrilled because it may be slow but it's going down. I keep telling myself slow and steady wins the race. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm thrilled because it may be slow but it's going down. I keep telling myself slow and steady wins the race. Are you serious?!?!? He really said that he's not happy? He needs to reevaluate his expections....and most importantly, his motivation skills....just my opinion. Keep up the great progress! 3 HotButterFly, KAATNS and MandyJ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ttaylor3102 6 Posted August 18, 2013 I have lost 57 pounds in 8 months. Hoping to lose 23 by the end of the year. It is so slow 1-2 pounds a week. My doctor is happy with my progress. 3 KAATNS, MandyJ and HotButterFly reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lisacaron 5,075 Posted August 19, 2013 I am also losing slowly. It can be frustrating but I am not ready to give up or give in! Trying to make all these changes so they stick for the rest of my life. Learning to change the way I eat, the things I chose to eat the times I eat them and the reason I eat them. All those things take some time to learn and adjust to, and my body is just as much a rebel as my mind is! There are days I think it just holds on to that fat like it's gonna lose its best friend, only it's a toxic friend that has never and will never serve it any good. I limit the calories, I work it out and it responds about as positively as my kids do when I tell them they have to do something. Eventually it gets done, but I have to keep hammering away at it. 2 KAATNS and MandyJ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
☠carolinagirl☠ 18,721 Posted August 19, 2013 slow and steady will prevail in the end.....larger people can lose more....no idea why just happens.....but 2 pound loss for you is the same 2 pound loss for me....so take it as its coming off and go atta girl to yourself 3 KAATNS, MandyJ and lisacaron reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lady VS 1,147 Posted August 19, 2013 I was a slow loser. I think it's best because u aren't prone to eat as much and your body truly adapts to eating smaller portions which will aid in you keeping your weight off longer. 3 lisacaron, KAATNS and MandyJ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
