To reach goal, I need to lose a total of 150. I have lost 80 at 6 month. The last 3 months have been slow. I wanted to have 100 lost by 4th of July, sadly I won't make that. The total includes my preo-op diet. I have lost a little over 50% to goal.

My surgery was 1/13 and I have lost 51 lbs. I only lost 4 last month. I stepped up my workouts and expect more this month, maybe 5 or 6. It has slowed down from those glorious early days of losing a pound a day...

Hi, I was averaging 10 lbs a month and down sixty by my sixth month. I don't think you are a slow loser.

WOW - I love reading others success! Weight loss sure does vary by person... it is hard to not get frustrated.. I feel like I am a slow loser too, then boom, in one week I lost 4 pounds, which makes my monthly loss look good! or good to me at least! I will take any loss I get!

My stats are below..just for the record.. I only weigh myself once a week, every Wed.. . Since the first Wed in June, I have not lost one single pound :( I was so hoping to hit the 250 Lb mark on my 6 month surgery date, but not going to make it.... thats o.k... I know what I am eating is in line, I know that I am kicking butt on exercising.. the weight will come off, I just need to keep on the right path. Good Luck to you, and dont be hung up on the scale...it can be frustating.

I will be 6 months out on July 3rd, I am currently 79 pounds down. I am working out pretty hard, it is true that the last 20 pounds are the hardest.:blink:

I've lost just over 80 pounds and i'm 6 months out. I've hit a rough patch this last few weeks - loss slowing right down. It's strange because I've been amping up the exercise. I have been on some medication lately that causes you to retain Water though so I'm hoping I don't slow down for long.

Don't get discouraged - focus on the future and good luck :)

Really can't remember anymore, but in 12 months i lost 150lbs, have been stablized at the same weight for 6 months and would like to lose about 20 - 30 lbs more. . . but if it doesn't happen, it doesn.t happen.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
