Still pushing on toward my goal. Loosing five pounds or less a month really blows, but at this point I have come way to far to quit now.

Sleeved 4/16

Started @ 278

Currently @ 203

I'm on the verge of comfortably fitting into a size 16 (not even a 16W). It's a very strange thing to see as I can't remember the last time I wore some of these pants. That means shopping soon!

No big problems yet. Just have days where I get super dizzy when I stand up. Started about 2 weeks ago.

50 lbs to go until I reach my goal. Working with a personal trainer and I started running, because I've been losing slow and steady, while working out, I have very little excess skin. Hope all of my hard work pays off when I hit goal. I'm currently wearing size 14 pants and M/L tops. My Hair loss seems to have subsided. It was scary at first, but I think I was the only one who noticed. Thankfully, I have a lot of hair! Feeling great, motivated to get to goal!

The members of this forum have been extremely inspiring, thanks to all/keep up the hard work! I look forward to hearing about your progress

4/29 SW: 266, CW: 211, so down 55 pounds after five months.

Looking at all these huge losses makes me want to give up (but I can't because it's physically impossible due to the sleeve). I wouldn't mind being a slow loser if it was steady, even half a pound a week, but instead I lose in a stairstep pattern, so nothing for two or three weeks, then a couple pounds, then nothing for some more weeks, then five pounds, etc.

I just want to lose ten more pounds by my six month follow-up with the surgeon's office so it's not a failure but at this point I don't know what to do. Too many calories (800 on non-workout days but on days I work out more like 1000)? Should I stop working out five days a week so I can eat less? Or am I not eating enough calories? Carbs are under 20 four days a week, no more than 50 the other three days a week, should I eliminate the higher days? My only hope is eating more Protein, since I average 55 grams now and perhaps if I get that average up to 70 it'll help. But I'm not sure what else to tweak.
