Staying the Course

Great attitude!! Make small changes one step at a time. Your doing fabulous!!

Hi, I am almost 14 mths. out from surgery and have only lost 40 pds. I know everyone keeps telling me the slower u lose the better chance u have of it staying off but I've been at a standstill for a little over a month and am getting very discouraged and like u I too would have given up already but I keep walking and drinking water and telling myself it will eventually come off. I have another 25 pds. I would like to get off so if there's ANY advice u would be willing to offer I would greatly appreciate it?? Your doing an awesome job by the way!!!!

Congrats on losing the 40 lbs! I know you must already feel more energy from that weight loss. I know that there were several things that I did to jump start my weight loss again. 1. I visited the doctor to have my band adjusted. 2. I changed my exercise up some. I use to do nothing bu walk. Now I bike (hadn't been on one in years...literally since I was 11 years old)....but it is true...you don't forget (smile). 3. I varied my diet. I tend to get stuck eating the same things cause I know that they are lean proteins etc. Now, I search different sites for healthy recipes to get out of my routine of eating the same foods. Keep on working toward your goal! You will be there soon!

Thanks you! Yes, I had to learn that I need to take it one step at a time...it is easy to want this weight to disappear overnight. Although, that would definately cause a malfunction with having enough cloths that fit and look nice! (smile)

Im over a year now and I have lost 50 lbs. I just now hit the plateau but Im at a size 10- 180 lbs. Im strong and fit. Id love to lose another 10 lbs. You need to start lifting heavy weights and eat clean. You will see changes with that!!!
