Ellie_Grace 271 Posted July 13, 2012 Hi there! I feel the exact same way! I am nt losing fast enough. Feels like I lost more on my pre-op diet. My first week inlost 12lbs... That eas 3 weeks ago' date=' total loss is 19. I'm so disappointed and wish to Give up![/quote'] I have actually told my husband that the difference from before my surgery and now is that I really can't give up when I hit the stalls and get frustrated because the change was my made to my body. That's why I can succeed at this! I just can't give up and I won't sabotage my surgery. I keep telling myself that no matter what or how slowly i will eventually lose this weight, even though it's difficult. I also keep saying slower weight off better For my old skin. But I'm not saying I'm not experiencing frustration for not losing but I'm having to use positive self talk so I keep going forward with a positive attitude BUT it's sooo hard to see so many losing so much and I lose a total of 6-7 pounds in three weeks!! Stay strong we will both succeed at this and one day look back and laugh!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

judid 54 Posted July 13, 2012 Hi, I've not posted here before but I find it encouraging to see others in a stall as I've been for the last two weeks. I know now it's not unique to me and will eventually pass. I constantly need to remind myself despite the stall there is no way I can not lose at my calorie and activity levels. Those old tapes go off in my head and I need to push stop to continue the healthy changes in my life. What I tolerate in my head is as important as what I put in my mouth!

Sunflwr76 45 Posted July 13, 2012 Thanks Sunflower ! I needed to hear that. The way my dr explained it to me is it is actually better to lose at a slower rate because then you won't have as Much loose skin- you have time to firm & tone at the slower rate hope he's right!
