Hi I'm one year out today and I'm a slowwwww loser I feel very discouraged and depressed about my results. I'm still struggling to keep my weight down up 3 lbs down 3 lbs. Anyone else in the same boat as me?
-
I dont believe that Protein is the issue. I eat more protein now than before surgery and ive been an extremely slow loser. Maybe it ia the b Vitamin but since my lap band ive struggled with my b levels and take B12 and b1 a lot. Maybe its time to get some bloodwork. I had a full thick head of hair and I think my Hair loss is extreme at this point.

Ok when does the hairloss stop?! Mine started about 6-8 weeks out, it has been 6 months since my surgery and still lots of loss. Why is this? Im not buying the Protein bit. Any insight?
-
I must be the slowest loser ever! I've close to 40 lbs and am down 2 pant sizes. Although I notice and people notice weightloss this is not what I expected at my 6 month mark. I def eat less and make better decisions but this Ian so discouraging. My mother is always asking me to call the Dr to ask him why this didnt work. I wouldn't have been able to lose at all if I didn't have the surgery but I just thought I would have at least been down 60 lbs by now.

Kinny mom u will be able to eat again. I haven't had much of a problem. I'm two months out and can eat veggies, chicken etc. I make healthier choices and eat Protein first. I don't feel like I'm missing out on anything. I'm now averaging a loss of 4 lbs a week since being off liquids and I feel great! The first month is rough, hang in there.

Even though its elective it will ne covered. I believe the standard is 3 weeks off but I was extended to 4 and glad. This was not as easy as I thought and need more time to.adjust. those who went back in a week, I can't even imagine.

I think 30 lbs is awesome! I'm 3 weeks out and still hovering at the same weight. Total of 10 lbs or so. I'm so discouraged. Why the heck doesn't this weight want to come off?

Ask you nUtritioNist if you can use agave. I know there are calories like sugar but you need less and it wont spike your sugar levels like sugar will. I have one coffee a day with it.

I don't know if I should be concerned or not.

I'm 18 days post op and not due for my period for another week. Prior to surgery my period was always on time. I've found for the last few days that my boobs are extremely sore. Pregnant sore, could this be excess hormones?
-
I think they forgot! What the heck is that, I'd be pissed.

I had surgery on 6/20 and as of Friday I've lost 8.5 lbs. I kind if thought I would have lost a little more. I keep stepping on the stupid scale and I'm up 2 down 2, its so aggravating. I'm going to leave the scale alone for a few days. It stinks to not really br eating and nothing much.going on scale wise.

I had some coconut Water and felt a whole lot better. There is lots of good stuff in it and I needed it! I got the one with lowest sugar.

Ok Im not liking these responses. I wish i read this before surgery. Im so bummed about this. Id like to be able to have an appropriate balanced meal and it doesnt look like it will ever happen. Will i ever even be able to have a salad. This is just depressing. I can see why so many wls become alcoholics.

I just drank as I was told 30 ml every 15 min. I saw my Dr 2 days ago and he saidI dont have to do that anymore. Just take a few sips at a time. Im not muchof a drinker anyway and dont feel the need to gulp. I have my Water in a marked container so I know how much I have drank and how much more I need to. My prpblem is before surgery I could go all day without drinking.

I see my nut Friday. I will ask. At least I can put a little yogurt in it.
