Oh to have that problem...

Be careful what you wish for. It's a common problem and it's no fun

I am only 6 months out from my surgery and I am worried I won't lose anymore! I lost 96 lb so far... I am 180 right now.... & I have not worked out in a few weeks .... Been different schedule with work and my diet is spot on but I definitely don't see 5he scale drop like it used to .... Not as fast. Yes.... I do hope this is a problem for me one day. Because being scared I will lose only enough to 180lbs or 6months out from surgery and then stop losing scares me.

How much are you losing a week? Are you tracking your calories?

Sounds familiar, although I can admit I don't work out like I should. I've thought about my weight too wondering when my set point will hit. I'm one year out, started at 248 and last Saturday I was 121 and I am 5'5. I don't know where my calories should be to maintain.

What surgery did you have?

About a pound sometimes 2 .... Just feels like forever

Checked this morning & I am down another pound

You are losing at the same rate I did.

Really? OK thank you. That makes me feel better ????????

It took me a year to get from 240 to 118. After the first 4-5 months I only lost about 2 pounds per week. After about 7 months only 1 pound a week. At some point I stopped thinking about it that much and it just kept coming off. It's amazing how 1 steady pound adds up.

lauraellen80 she probably picked 115lbs at 5'2" because if you get any smaller you won't be able to buy any clothes that fit. I say that because that's where I am at. I wear a 0P.

I do workout/run because I like the health benefits. I do have carbs now and I don't consider that a cheat. Cookies, ice cream, cake, waffles etc are cheat days in my book and usually just on the weekends. It is hard to find the happy medium as we all have worked so hard to get here that gaining it back is a big fear.
