So, today I am a little over 6 1/2 months post op. On the day of my surgery I weighed 298 pounds, down from 343. Today I weighed in at 238.4. Maybe I am being unrealistic but I feel like 60 pounds in 6 1/2 months is ridiculous. I was told to expect rapid weight loss in the first 6 months and that has not happened. Since my 3 month check up in march I have lost 17 pounds. 17 freaking pounds! Are you kidding me. I feel like I am never going to get to my surgeons goal weight of 170 let alone my personal goal weight of 150. I do not know what to do. I regret getting this surgery. I lost 45 pounds in 2 1/2 months in order to get approved for the surgery. I feel like I had better results before the surgery and had to take less pills. Since the surgery I am iron deficient, b-12 deficient, vitamin d deficient. I take bariatric fusion multi vitamins. I just don't know what to do. My husband is angry that we shelled out over 4 grand for this surgery and I lost more weight before than I have after. I feel myself sinking into a terrible depression. I have no one to talk to. I don't really want anyone to know how disappointed I am.
