That is more than 3 lbs a week, that is not bad at all. Some just lose a lot faster than others so dont compare yourself you will only get frustrated believe me. Plus you have to add in what you have already lost and how long that took to see the big picture. My advice though is to try and stay under 30 grams of carbs and eat healthy solid proteins. I have only lost 50lbs in 6 months,30 more to go. I did have less to lose than others might have, but I know still that I am a slower loser, but that is okay less saggy skin and I really think you will have an easier time keeping it off in the long run. Don't get discouraged though, you are doing great! Hang in there and in a year from know think where you will be

You will be fine. I drove a 2 week road trip for Texas to Florida 4 weeks out.

Yeah I agree all the nitrates and MSG in a lot of this stuff. I look for all natural sliced meats and jerky when I do buy it. It is a little more expensive but worth it. Nitrates are linked to colon cancer and who knows what else.

My NUT said no bread, pasta, rice etc until after goal. I eat protein, green veggies and less than 30 grams of carbs. Also take your measurements as well, you could be losing inches.

El pollo loco is always my go to. I ill get 2 chicken legs.

I stall a lot! Will lose 2-3 lbs then stall for 10 days or so, then lose another 2-3. I am down 44 since surgery 3/6. 220 SW now 176. But hey I am losing. I know I will hit goal of 135 by a year or before. I am good with that. Plus everyone notices and that feels great!

I am 5 months out and taking prescription vitamin d.

A pound a day! My doc said 6-10 a month would be great.

I do feel like I am a slow loser compared to many on here, sleeved 3/6 at 220 CW 178. It is actually over 2.5 a week so I guess it is not so bad after all. I have hit many stalls of 2 weeks or so and never really drop more than 1-2 pounds at a time. But if I did not do the surgery I know I would not have lost the way I have. I hope I can get to goal in a year but if not i will just be patient until it happens. I feel so much better and definitely know I look better. If you are a slow loser, just celebrate what you are losing and please don't get discouraged over post where some are losing at lighting speed. I can at least say I have had no hair loss (yet) and I am almost 5 months out. Also I will be 50 this year so I know losing slower has to help a little with the chance of less saggy skin.

I have always battled with weight. Never a skinny kid for sure. I have lost and gained a couple hundred pounds in the last 30 years or so. My highest was about 243. Got down to 135 for a couple of years and then had another baby and then a complete hysterectomy at only 28, after that I gained up to 243 again and lost and gained some more. Sleeved 3/6 at 220 now at 178. I can't wait to get to goal of 130, I am 5'2. I would be happy though once I at least hit 150, I wore a size 8 last time I was at that weight. Size 12 right now, I just want to be in single digits

Ebonisekim wow! That is so amazing! You look like a different person.

4 months 41lbs

http://www.dsfacts.com/weight-loss-stall-or-plateau.html How much have you lost so far? Everybody is different and your body needs to adjust. Make sure you are eating enough Protein, around 80-90 grams,try and keep your carbs under 50 ( I do under 30) and make sure you get min of 64 oz of Water. This happened to me as we'll. I am just a slow loser 41 lbs since March 1st. 220 start and 179 now. Your starting weight, height, age and metabolism all play a part. Just hang in there and relax and it will start coming off again.

My first 2 weeks was clear liquids, sugar free jello, clear broth and Popsicles, no protein. Hang in there it gets better.
