    Melanie G. got a reaction from LovingmeForever in 6 weeks update with pictures!   
    Gosh, you look fantastic! Can I ask what size implants and type you have? And have you had any shufting or unevenness...I went for a local consultation and the PS said that that is a common problem for bariatric patients.

    Melanie G. got a reaction from happilysleeved in Serious Plateau?!?!   
    My doctor explained to me that weight doesnt come off as we think of it , in small bits at a time. He said that at first it is happening so fast that it seems that way. As we begin to slow our weight loss it happens more in chuncks. It has to do with the conversion of fat so it can be lost.. He said to definitely stop weighing every day. I was like an addict, it was so exciting for a while. Now I'm lucky if I drop a pound in a wee, but I have noticed that when I lose it's more like nothing for two weeks and then three gone. Everyone is different, if you know you are sticking to a good plan, just be patient, it will pay off.
