December Sleevers, where ya at?

[Editor57 11]

Sleeved Dec. 12 ... down a total of 85 pounds. I had significant orthopedic issues which in the past month have magically started to ease. My co-workers are always telling me to slow down. Because of that and a crazy schedule, exercise has been a difficult piece for me, but everything in time. I overcame being a vegetarian to eat high-protein, so I can do anything. I am going broke replacing my jeans and my hair is just, well, weird, but otherwise, I feel really great and an optimistic I'll get there. I've got my six-month appointment Friday. Will be interesting to see what my surgeon says.

I pretty much feel like a complete failure. I only lost 5 pounds in the last 3 months. The first 6 months is supposed to be the fast weight loss period...but I suck. Need to get my mind right and get back in order before I start gaining weight. I've had several procedures and surgery, but I feel like that is a lame excuse.

No liquid prep diet really because I had surgery 2 weeks after meeting the doctor the 1st time.

@Perryman Hi. This process can be discouraging at times. You’re in a valley but there will be more peaks to come. Having had medical issues to deal with, you were laser-focused on what was in front of you. You don’t have a “lame excuse.” You had you’re reality.

You’ve made a step in the right direction simply by sharing where you’re at. And, losing 55 pounds in 6 months is pretty incredible. It’s nearly 10 lbs./month on average. Get your game face on and press on. You’ve got this! 😀🌻🦋
