madamesuzanne 0 Posted September 11, 2008 HI everyone. welcome in the Slow Losers Section:)..... I am one too. Hey! we should have a Slow Losers Group or NEW Thread call FOR SLOW LOSERS! When I read all the people losing and losing.... not for me.:thumbup: I am 54 yrs young, I was 225 before op (August 26) and arriving at home 3 days later I was at 218. Now 15 days later.... I am at 214. It means I only lost 11 pounds total including the surgery. I do walk 45 min every day, and follow Protein, shake and mushy diet. This week I am stuck at 214. This October will be one year that I don't have my periods. I was thinking that it is because of my hormones and getting older. I am discouraged. I thought that it would be so easy ! but NO !:rolleyes2: What is >too much loosing> ? and what is <not enough loosing>? I think my band is not working after all... and it cost me 16 000$.... What do I do wrong?:sleep: Madame Suzanne Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oregondaisy 2,021 Posted September 12, 2008 Suzanne, you will lose! You just barely got your band! It takes time and it takes several fills. We do lose slower as we get older. Join us on the over 50's thread! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oregondaisy 2,021 Posted September 15, 2008 Good. You will get all kinds of support over in the 50's thread. There are a lot of new people getting banded in that group. Most of us do lose slower as we get older, especially the people who have problems with exercise due to sore knees, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
