May sleevers! How much have you lost so far?

[leanintoit 32]

I am Offically out of the morbid Obese catagory just Obese at this point, BMI from 50 to 39 Surgery was May 23rd down 72 pounds

Skittle Jessi - that is wonderful news! We focus so much on weight that it is great to hear when someone hits a milestone otherwise. Congratulations! Which BMI chart do you use? I wonder if more of us are out of the morbidly obese category...

HW 278 (size 18)

SW 263

CW varies between 222 and 217 - in ANOTHER stall

I feel like such a slow loser!! My body has changed, but nothing really drastic! My pants are baggy, but I am still wearing a size 16 and can barely squeeze into a 14! When I read how well everyone else is doing and see these dramatic pictures where some of yall look completely different (although I am very happy for each one of you) I get so depressed. I have seen people that I have not seen in several months and no one notices a difference. Not sure what I am doing wrong. I feel like I am destined to be fat forever.

MystiGal - You are NOT destined to be fat forever! You have a taken a huge step toward your health and your sleeve is doing its work. I am fairly slow at losing too, but I know it will come for both of us. Don't lose faith, friend!

I was sleeved on 5/15

SW 242

Current weight 198

I feel like I am losing slow as well. It is discouraging. But one thing about the slow weight loss is no baggy skin

Have dr's apt next week, gonna ask him if I am on track or not, so I can stop worrying

TY. Just keep doing it. A steady loss is better than a fast gain any day. You will get there.

I understand how you feel...my experience has been similar, as you can see on my ticker...I am also in a stall at 217...I had very much hoped to be in Onederland by my 6-month surgiversary...I am one month away and don't think there is any chance I will lose 17 lbs in a month...but I am focusing on the positives--one being that I have lost 50 lbs and the other that my blood glucose levels have been much lower, and I am almost completely off my diabetes meds

hang in there and don't get too discouraged!

I was sleeved May 20th..... Down 57lbs since surgery! Started my journey a size 22/24 but now happily wearing a size 14! Only about 43 lbs till my end goal and it feels amazing
