[AllofMe 49]

Surgery date:09/16

Stats start 320

Goal 135

Current 272

Wow. Great job. ????️AllofMe.

[AllofMe 49]

I was sleeved 9/16, and I also feel like I am losing slowly...but like you guys said, slow and steady is better

Starting weight: 264

Surgery weight: 253

Current weight: 232

I know I shouldn't pay attention much to the scale, and I wish I would have taken my measurements so I could also track inches lost. I've already had one stall on the scale, but my clothes are definitely looser. I'm putting off buying new clothes as long as I can though... don't want to spend a whole lot of money on clothes that I won't be wearing very long.

You guys are doing great!

You are too. Kinda weird but I can't wait for baggy pants. ????Have a nice day- ️AllofMe.

Happy Halloween ????????. How did everyone make it through our 1st Holiday ??

[fitandfly 4]

Yes I have been losing slow too

[BellaLuce4 261]

I'm only down 1/2 lb in the last week and I started working out... Lol

My doc and NUT said I'm doing great. I guess I had more "hefty" expectations of early weight loss.

Can't complain really, I weight less now than I have in 8 years.

I'm just really anxious and excited to keep losing!!

????resisted on Halloween. But broke down and had 4 pieces on Saturday. Was stressing over my daughter choice of boyfriend. Oh well. Last year I might have eaten the whole bag. Lol. So it's progress. ????AllofMe

I am hearing you, my weight loss is very slow and steady.

Considering I am eating probably a quarter of what I use to eat.

Arghhh

Hi all. I was sleeved September 18, 2014. The day of surgery I weighed 363 lbs. Today I weigh 315 lbs. I can't wait to get out of the 300s. I finally found a Protein Drink that I really like. It is called Isopure. 20 oz bottle is 40 grams of Protein. The orange and raspberry are good. I still can't eat many foods. I am just going to keep up with Vitamin & minerals supplements, fluids and protein and see how it goes.

I can't wait for summer, I am sooo cold!!!

Want to be thinner and warmer... Lol

Can't wait. It seems like it will never happen. Sometimes I wonder if my stomach is small enough lol or if the surgery even worked. I know it did, but sometimes with the slow weight loss I feel ill never get where I want to be. Anyone else ever have those thoughts? Not being negative, just impatient. Slow and steady I know. I've read that there are months or weeks where we stall and lose at a greater rate but I would love to have a good losing month. I've had the stall during week 3-7 lol. My weight loss is very slow but I'm shrinking. I think I should break up with my scale for a while.

I too have felt that maybe I got stuck with too big of a stomach or that I am losing slower than most folks. I have lost 20 pounds 6.5 weeks post op, and have not yet embraced an formal exercise routine. I started out at a lower BMI, and have no excuse for not getting on treadmill or bike. It is as if I am afraid to try cause I failed at exercise so often. I am going to try to download a motivational or hypnosis recording and see if that works.
