Loosing weight very slow



Recommended Posts

Currently I have only lost 150lbs

However I did stop drinking my Protein and Vitamins ( I don't have any excuse for this behavior. My brother 10 years younger than me passed away unexpectedly. It took a toll on me in many ways. I didn't want to even live anymore. I pretty much was his mother growing up. So from March 15 till now I lost 15 lbs. totally didn't eat. Or when I tried to eat because I knew my body needed food I would just throw up. Now I feel I am not loosing weight like other ppl. I had my sleeve last October 202 starting weight and now 150. How can I boost my weight loss again?

Help!!!

You need to start getting your Protein again to lose weight. Close to 100 grams a day if you can, drink plenty of liquids. Low carbs.

Get back to eating healthy. Get back with the program. That should help you lose weight.

Sorry to hear of the loss of your brother. I wish you the best.

Who cares? Everyone is different, please don't waste your time worrying about how much others have lost.

Now, let's look at your specific case. You had a very low starting weight (to put it in perspective many people on here list 200 pounds as their IDEAL weight), yet you still lost a quarter of that even. That is frickin' awesome!

Sooo, stop beating yourself up about it. Right now! Go back to the basics and see how that works for you. Most likely if you have been starving yourself for the past month (which I totally get due to your circumstances) you will probably put a little bit of weight back on at first, but if you stick to the plan you created for life after surgery, you should start to see results. That being said, unless you are like 4 feet tall, I don't think they will be all that dramatic as 150 is pretty low to begin with.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
