Lolita 0 Posted January 21, 2011 Hello everyone I had some questions I had my Surgery on Oct 25th 2010 I was 256 before my surgery and day of Surgery I was 246 today I my weight is 199. I feel like I am losing weight very slow. Should I have lost more weight ... I need to make a little better choices eating or I should say eat more and I have a hard time remembering to drink Water I know that is horrible . Any suggestions I have also drank a little and I know that is bad so I am cutting that out . I am just a little scared at this point . I need to go in to over drive or something .

My surgery was October 27th, 2010. I weighed 241 on day of surgery. Today I weigh 195. My surgeon says I am doing better than the average. So I think you are doing fine. Everyone loses differently, but we seem to be hanging together. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coops 1,790 Posted January 21, 2011 You are not losing slowly, you are doing really well... keep up the good work. In 6 1/2 mths I have lost 50lb... so as you can see you are doing well!! Remember everyone loses at different rates! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LESLIEH 68 Posted January 22, 2011 I think your doing pretty darn good. I was sleeved on Nov 9th and weighed 247 at the time of surgery and now weigh 210. So your by no means a slow loser in my book. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mellifrits 25 Posted January 22, 2011 Don't worry! You ar doing awesome! I know it is hard to watch the scale move slower than you hopes but I promise you are doing great! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2BSkinny 0 Posted January 22, 2011 I'm almost exactly where you are and also feel like I'm in the "slow loser" category. My surgery was 10/26 and I weighed in at 232. Today I'm at 198. As nice as it would be to be a "fast loser", I'm counting my blessings that my skin is given every possible opportunity to tighten up as I lose. At least we are in the 100's!

PamelaAM 16 Posted January 22, 2011 You guys are actually losing quite well! I started at 250 at the beginning of my Options class orientation in the Summer of 2009, then was 242 at my pre-op and after my pre-op diet was 234.5 the morning of surgery. This morning I was at 197.5 and I was sleeved a month before you both :-) So personally, I think you are losing really quite well! Wish i were losing that fast!
