That's great. Be happy with this. Don't compare yourself to others. I think your loss sounds pretty normal. I'm at 4 weeks and lost right at 22. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MsThickSlimSexy 65 Posted December 21, 2012 I'm a slow loser too but I'm happy about it. No really pumped about losely large amounts so swiftly...plus steady works for me. Remember any weight loss is a huge accomplishment! Surgery weight 256 checked out 257.4 today 247 been at that weight for a few days...it's all good! In due time it will melt...

Kate27 34 Posted December 21, 2012 You need to join PCOS club on here just click the link under my picture and join. BTW I am 3 weeks out and have lost 17 lbs. Normal weight loss for people not sleeved is 10 lbs a month so I figure as long as we are loosing it's a good thing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pink Butterfly 11 Posted December 21, 2012 Hello! I feel your pain when I look at everyone else who had the same op date they are way ahead of me. I am at 5 weeks and 19 pounds down. My hubby says that I look smaller everyday. I try to take it one day at a time. I stopped weighing myself daily. Last week I lost 4.5 in a week the week before -2 and I also stalled for over a week. With Pcos we know it will take longer but actually low carb low sugar low cal is the perfect balance for us to loose weight! Good Luck! 1 Kate27 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I too stales our at week 4 some days it even looked like I gained! How is that possible eating 600-700 calories a day? Today dropped what it showed I gained ! But it's now a week with no lose. I'm not able to exercise so don't know if that's part of it or what! I'm getting discouraged! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pink Butterfly 11 Posted December 21, 2012 I was on Metform twice a day but not since I was sleeved. I know it is crazy but our bodies with PCOS sometimes dont want to let the weight go. I guess we just have to keep on going!. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
