    stefanyj_ got a reaction from makemyownluck in what is your ht/wt and clothing size?   
    Hi [emoji112]
    I'm 21 years old. My highest weight was around january this year, probably 344 lbs (I'm not completely sure about it, my scale couldn't measure more than 330 lbs).
    I was 322lbs on the day of my surgery.
    I wore 22w-24w on pants and 2x-3x shirts.
    Today, 28 weeks post-op I'm 270lbs. I wear a size 18 on pants (I actually got to wear a pair of size 16 pants) and XL on shirts (and even L on some styles of shirts).

    I'm kinda worried about my arms, legs and tummy but I'm hoping some discipline and excercise will help me avoid plastic surgery [emoji123]

    stefanyj_ got a reaction from bpierce in 3 Weeks Out and Frustrated   
    I went through the exact same thing. First week post op I lost 29 pounds and I was so excited and happy about it, I kept doing everything right and my second week was something around 5 or 6 pounds I think, I was so frustrated, I even told my doctor, he said it's normal, that there will be weeks that you will loose many pounds and other weeks that will seem like you don't see results, but keep doing everything your doctor tells you and you'll keep loosing those pounds.
    I used to go on the scale daily, if you're doing that I'll recommend you to change that to once every week or once every ten days, it will keep your mind free and calm and things will be a little easier, or at least it worked that way for me

    stefanyj_ got a reaction from travelergirl in 18 weeks post op and struggling with weight loss   
    Hi everyone!
    I'm 18 weeks post op and I've been struggling with my weight.
    I was loosing around 4-5 pounds per week, but it's been 2 weeks since I stopped loosing weight and started gaining it!! It's frustrating me a lot because I had lost around 63 pounds but gained 6 pounds again.
    I feel like I've been eating more that I used to eat the first months and I'm not sure if that should be that way? I also stopped drinking my Protein Shake, for some reason I was feeling that it was what didn't let me loose weight but I don't know what to think now.
    Is it normal? Is there anything I can do to start loosing weight again? Any advices?
