Hi bander! I am about 9 months out and I'm down 83 pounds. It took some time for me to figure out why I wasn't losing any weight. I gave up after 4 months in and started to gain ... I regrouped and went back to my support group, online sites, a gym and joined a local running group. The weight started to come off. I lost 50 pounds in 3 months( over the summer). I had to limit carbs, take a supplement to help go to the bathroom and drink lots if water. I also tried to walk/ run daily. Don't give up!!! You guys can do this .....
