CorbyFit 1 Posted June 24, 2013 Hey 2 lbs a week is awesome. My surgeon said that 2 lbs a week is what I should shoot to lose. I have just started Water aerobics this summer. I love it. So give me 2 a week. Slow and steady wins the race. Hey it took me 25 years to gain it all so taking a year to lose it all.... okay, I guess i can be patient. Plus I think about how good I feel now and how much more I can do. Heck going up the stairs without wanting to keel over at the top totally rocks. And I can even beat my hubby in the number of push ups I can do. SW: 230 Current: 189 Sleeved March 15. 1 Sherriews@yahoo.com reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I feel so much lighter that it surprises me sometimes. I feel so much better physically and so much better emotionally. It's definitely been worth it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sherriews@yahoo.com 56 Posted June 24, 2013 I'm a slow loser too, but I am consistently losibg 2lbs a week. Pre-op 233, SW 218, CW 184. Surgery date was 3/18. I eat under 800 calories a day. Carbs are usually under 50 carbs sometimes less and ive had a few bad days where its been more. I work out 3-5 days a week my aversge is 4 and I burn 250-350 calories per session or more. I don't know how to boost my loss. I just want to lose a consistent 10 mobth I would love a consistent 10 per mo also. Like you, I need to know how to get a jumpstart !

Nicole 2013 44 Posted June 24, 2013 If i keep doing atleast 1 Protein Shake a day then i lose if not i stall Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NoOrganicForMe 40 Posted June 25, 2013 If i keep doing atleast 1 Protein Shake a day then i lose if not i stall I think you are on to something because when I have 1 or 2 Protein Shakes a day, I lose more weight compared to when I just have food only. I am starting to think that the extra Protein throws our body out of starvation mode. I don't know what else it could be ??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Picasosz 0 Posted July 12, 2013 I am at the point now I can eat almost anything just very small portions, I am still having difficulties with emotional eating but I have taught myself to recognize these instances. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
