mitchjoann132010 288 Posted May 31, 2018 (edited) Hey guys! I just want to ask everyone what their stats are. I am 5 weeks and 1 day out and down 13.4 lbs. That averages about 2.68 lbs a week. Overall, it has been a loss of 38.4 lbs from my highest weight. I beat myself up a lot thinking I'm not losing enough but the numbers have added up. My goal was to lose 10lbs a month since I'm only 5'0 tall and close to the 200lb mark and I've lost 10.72 beating my goal. I love hearing everyone's success because it completely inspires me to do my best. How far out are you guys and how much have you lost!! I've been a part of BariPal for a while. I love the positivity on here and how everyone picks each other up. It's hard to see the big picture sometimes but all the advice on patience and trusting the process has really been true!!

SleeveinIL 386 Posted May 31, 2018 This is a great post. You are losing right on track, keep it up! I am 12 weeks out (as of tomorrow) and am down a total of 67 lbs from my high weight. Of those, 33 lbs since my surgery date. So I am losing an average of about 2.75 lbs a week. When I think of my loss weight loss broken down like this it helps as I feel like I haven't been losing like I "think" I should. I am impatient I guess. 2 Sosewsue61 and mitchjoann132010 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mitchjoann132010 288 Posted May 31, 2018 SleeveinIL Exactly, it is so easy to be discouraged thinking I should lose more than I am. I read some forums with people that started off around my height and weight and they are losing an average of 10lbs a month. I am so happy for everyone and their weight loss. It is truly incredible to see how everyone is succeeding. I heard a really inspirational saying that about how we are all on a journey and there is no set time frame. We will all end up there eventually. 1 kayelee L16 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I consider myself very very lucky because my weight loss has been very steady and not had the soul crushing stalls some have had to fight thru. 1 mitchjoann132010 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Neversaynever 268 Posted May 31, 2018 Well I am almost 3 weeks out of surgery and have lost about 16lbs so far but 35 since I started the journey. I lost 13lbs in the first week and then was disappointed when I "only" lost 3lbs this week, daft I know! 1 mitchjoann132010 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
