Losing Slow At Very Beginning?



Recommended Posts

I know I am progressing. I feel so much stronger during my workouts. It would just be nice for positive reinforcement on the scale

I'm with you about the stall thing, Dana. I only lose weight one or two days out of the month. I'll be the same weight forever then one morning I weigh myself and I'm down 2-5 pounds. It seems I'm always in a "stall"

I'm like that too! I don't lose anything then I'll start my period and couple of days after I'll lose some weight then I'll just stay there until the whole process starts over again 0_o

Did that make sense??

Let me make a lot of you feel better ;)

Sleeved 9/26/12 244 today 209 yeah that's right a huge 35 lb loss in almost 5 months. I work out 5/6 days a week 2/3 hour a day get my food Water so on all in and spot on. Blood work hormones all norm. So as for slow I might get the gold. No my inches don't move btw not in the past 10weeks. Some ppl just don't loss as fast as others. If your not working out you have only your self to be upset with when your not loosing weight. Well I watch what I eat drink and how I workout and I get nothing blah. But you know what the weight will come off even if I have it get it sucked out and cut off. I have a 25K "I was self pay" Portion Control device for life. :P

I went to drs and nut yesterday, although weigh loss is slow they were pleased. I think I stress myself more about measuring up to what they think. My Dec appt was a bit stressful so I didn't know what to expect. My doc reminded me of my body structure and that I have more muscle mass then some of his patients. He also reminded me that it can take 18 to 24 months to get to goal. I have to go for a bone/fat scan thing because he wants to compare it to the first one. He said BMI is a good guide but does not give entire picture. I am happy. I think the pressure has been relieved with his positive reinforcement.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
