Anyone losing inches at different rates?



Recommended Posts

For instance my upper body has lost at a faster rate than my lower...making my clothing sizes not match at all...so I am almost 2 sizes smaller in tops...what the heck? Has this happened to you all too? Feeling kinda lopsided...lol! Happy to be losing, just the same, though! :-)

I am experiencing the same thing. I've always carried my weight in my legs and rear. Also, I need to kick it into gear with my workouts. I think my legs would be smaller.... and much more muscular, if I had started strength training right after surgery. You are not alone!

Boy, that is me. I haven't lost much in my breast area. Therefore, my clothes just hang on me, but it looks like I haven't lost much weight. I'm sure it will even out in time.

I've been working out...my legs have thinned...my upper torso and arms have thinned...my lower stomach and hips, well...guess they don't feel like going anywhere right now. Lol. Makes clothes shopping kinda frustrating. I'm assuming it will all balance out. It's weird, because as I gained, it was pretty even. I'm getting my winter clothes out today...I have a feeling all my tops will be way too big! Yay! Haha

Yep i feel ya my pants are much smaller than my tops but my belly is the biggest part of me so that is why i buy the bigger shirts so people wont stare at my stomach. but it is a great feeling when you go to get your clothes out from last winter and you cant wear any of them because they are too big!!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
