Hi Criolelaie! Thank you, it's good to know you are not alone on an island!!! You are so right, slow loss is better than no loss, I just have to keep telling myself that. I've started swimming to help with exercise so hopefully that will start some more loss. Thanks again and keep up the great work! [emoji4]

Hi Jackie my weight loss is slowing down too, in the last month I only lost 5 pounds. I can eat more now and I regularly hit 1200 calories per day and often more. Don't give up! Slow loss is still loss I am starting exercising more to make up for the increased calories intake.

And also, I was 'healthy'. Even though I was a 61 BMI, my blood pressure was always 115/62, sugar's 75-80, and my cholesterol is 130. I thought I was healthy until I went through this. My liver showed signs of getting ready to riot. My gallbladder got destroyed by 37, filling with stones, which in turn caused me to have pancreatic attacks I knew nothing about until they opened me up.
This surgery saved my life, weight aside.
Even if you're healthy now, you're just running on borrowed time. There will be a point your body will begin to back pedal out of exhaustion, and your numbers will start climbing.
