InspectorJensen 20 Posted November 11, 2016 Thank you so much for posting this. It is really inspiring. I'm eagerly awaiting my surgery on December 19th and since my surgeon wants me to lose 16 more pounds before surgery - was 376 now 339 and have to be 323, I'm starving but as a self pay with 30K already spent trying to fulfill requirements, I can't stop now. So...I've been looking for inspiration. You were beautiful in both, but I'm sure feel so much better. Thanks again and good luck!

Sent from my SM-G935P using the BariatricPal App My Dr told me if you are where you are a stall not loosing weight, the only thing to jump start it back is sprints. He said there will be plateaus when u don't loose however you will loose. I have lost 100 in 5 months and there were times I stalled. I'm having a hard time eating I get real nauseous. Day by day..... Goof luck hun Sent from my SCH-R970 using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dashofpixiedust8 1,469 Posted November 12, 2016 Great job! I am also a little over 1 month post op. How much have you lost since surgery? I feel like I am going much slower than everyone else I know it's really hard to do but try not to compare your weight loss journey with any one else's. Everyone has different bodies, metabolisms, and coexisting medical issues. Also age, sex, diet, and activity level all affect the numbers you see on the scale. I also sometimes feel like I haven't lost as much as I should have since surgery because I had so many complications. When I see people who weigh way less than me losing a whole ton in the first month when I didn't lose that much it's hard not to get down on myself. I just have to remind myself that I have lost a large amount of weight since surgery and maybe it's not as fast as other people but I also have longer to go. Keep your head up and try and keep some blinders on. This is your journey, don't feel you have to compete with anyone else. That will only set yourself up for failure, I know, it's happened to me in the past. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
