I am not losing like I thought I would be!



Recommended Posts

I had my surgery on May 29 and have only lost 8 pounds. I thought I would have lost so much more by now. Anyone else feel this way?

I lost 22 pounds pre-op, and then gained 12 of them back with the IV fluids in the hospital. It took me two weeks to lose that and then I hit the dreaded third week stall.

It was not until the second month that I really started to lose weight, about he time some people have lost sixty pounds already.

I am only hoping that the slower weight loss will help me to not be so baggy when I reach goal. I am doing my part with exercise, strength training and ab work.

I felt like I wasn't really losing at the pace I expected in the beginning. I was sleeved 4/6, and I have lost 46 pounds (including the pre-op diet.) So 46 pounds in 3 months. I will take it. Don't stress, follow your plan, and the pounds will leave you.

I am exactly at 46 pounds as of today including pre op and my date was 3/17
