questions for August ppl

[gamergirl 4,610]

8/12 and I'm down 26 lbs. from surgery date, 31 lbs. from start. You are going a lot faster than I am, but I'll take whatever I can get. I'm over 50, had a starting BMI right at 36, and have a slow metabolism. But I've gone from 18/20 and XXL to 14/16 and size M in nine weeks, so I'm happy. Been stalled 2 weeks, too.

hello near-twin!! I was 8/2, i've lost 35, I'm 47, my BMI was 37, slow metabolism, gone from18/20 to 16 (in xl or L still I think) in 10 weeks and I've stalled at least 3-4 weeks total and I too am happy.

I tell you what, if you're not 30 years old, we're going to have a whole different trajectory of weight loss aren't we?

I'm happy with my loss of 51 lbs sleeved on 8/16. I've had fluctuating last two weeks and loss has slowed . Dispute I'm feeling better and learning my body. I'm trying to ensure exercising 4 days a week min. I seem to loose more when I'm on top of my Water intake! Enjoying reading everyone's experiences

I am definitely not on track for 100+ lbs in six months (how DO they do that?!?)

VSG on Aug 15 -- weight on first appointment was 283, day of surgery 271, today 241 for a total loss of 42 lbs from start to finish, from day of surgery 30 lbs.

I'm in my 60's.

Fast loser' date=' slow loser ... I guess I just never understood why it matters. It's like a marathon ...there are some people that can get it done in 2.5 hrs, most take 4.5, but they still cheer when somebody walks across the finish at 6 hrs. Just keep running, when you can't run anymore walk ... just finish.[/quote']

: clap clap clap.... <-- that's me right now clapping away!!!!! Couldn't say it any better than you...

Hey, your doing great. I was sleeved August 13th, and have only lost 18lbs. I know better than nothing, but does tend to hurt my feelings. I weighed 236 surgery day, and today 218. I so wanted to be under 200 by this time. But didn't happen so I gotta buck up and carry on.
