I laughed so loud! I’m almost 5 1/2 months out and have only lost 58 pounds. You have lost that in 3 months... you’re fine. Stretching occurs over time

I had VSG surgery on 8/23/17 so I am about 5 months out and now 58 pounds down. 30 of those pounds came off within the first few weeks. I feel like now Im slipping into bad habits because I am unmotivated. I still eat small portions and get full quickly but not losing. Is it too late for me to get back? Did I mess up royally? I haven’t moved in a couple weeks and I’m really frustrated.

Any tips for getting back on the losers Bench? I don’t want this to be the end of my journey when I’m still heavy.

Following! It’s always good to have support of someone going through it! Stay strong. As long as we aren’t gaining we are still winning

I normally stay anywhere from 800-1200 calories a day and Still don’t lose so don’t feel bad

If you need a friend or ever want to talk hit me up on Snapchat or Instagram. I love having friends through this jojrney

It’s frustrating! It’s just hard because I’m eating like a fraction of what I used to but I’m just staying the same. Lol like I’m not someone who can just have stuff in moderation and lose Weight my stupid body needs to starve to lose weight. I hare people who can eat and eat and not gain weight. I’ll admit I’ve pushed myself a few times because it’s like I’m not seeing results but for the most part I want to get below 200 alrwsdy

Yeah I started at 335 and now at 275 and now weight is coming off slow and I feel like it’s because of eating habits. I’m kinda going to do a restart for the next week and get back on track.

Same here! I can eat anything but sometimes sugar makes me sick. How much have you lost? I’m about 5 months and only lost 60 pounds

Anyone else lose slow after they had the surgery? I hate to be one of those people who complain but it seriously gives me anxiety. Anyone else feel like the sleeve didn’t work? I’m 4 months out and 48 lbs lost. I started at 335 and now I’m at 287. Will I lose more? I know a loss is a loss but most of it came off the first month and now super slow. Any advise? Anyone who lost 10 pounds a month hit 100 pounds lost? Just looking for similar stories.

Ugh barely hit the 48 pound mark today. My weight is coming off so slow and it’s so frustrating. I wish I was hitting the 100 pound mark it’s hard to believe that’s going to happen for me.

Still really frustrated. I feel like everyone is just passing me up and I’m stuck in the beginning. I had surgery on 8/23. I’m coming up on 3 months and I’ve lost 38 pounds. It’s so frustrating. Most of that was the first month. I’ve prob only lost 4 pounds last month and 4 the month before that. What’s wrong with me? Why am I losing so slow?

Ok, so i really like this site but......... why are so many people complaining about loosing weight of 30-40 lbs in just a little over 2 months? I dont understand! When was the last time you lost that kind of weight. My surgery day weight was 244, today its 209. Thats 35lbs and im super, excited, happy!!!!! I feel wonderful, not discouraged or wondering if im loosing slow or not. All that matters is im loosing, so be happy !!!! If you read everyones weight loss on this paticular forum you will see your not losing slowly at all, if anything a little more or about the same as everyone else. Again be happy your losing!!!

Must be nice to be able to brag about losing weight. I’ve only lost 37 Pounds since 8/23 and no one can see the difference. I️ can’t even tell. I️ hate that I️ got this stupid surgery because I’m never losing the weight.

Surgery weight- 335
Current weight- 298

Starting to fall into a depression because I’m not losing weight. I️ had my surgery on 8/23/17 and now 2 1/5 months out and I’ve only lost 37 pounds. I️ started at 335 and now down to 298. I’ve been patient and everyone says “don’t compare yourself to everyone else.” But they don’t understand that people who were way smaller have ever lost more than me. I️ don’t eat a quarter of what I️ used to eat and I️ work out a few times a week. What can I️ do to lose weight? I’m so sick of being fat. My life has been ruined because of it. I’m starting to think there isn’t a light at the end of the tunnel.

I️ need some major advice! I️ has surgery two months ago and started at 335 and now I’m down to 297! Not a huge loss but it’s fair. My friends want to go to six flags next Friday but I’m so scared I️ won’t fit into the rides. Any advice or experiences of going and fitting into rides? I️ really want to go but I️ don’t want to be embarrassed. Tia

Alright guys! Stats time! Put your surgery date, weight loss and starting weight up here for motivation.

My surgery was 8/23, I started at 335 and I'm down to 303! 32 pounds gone forever. [emoji1430] let me hear your stories!

I was sleeved on 8/23. It has been a whole month and I have only lost 25 pounds. I'm a big girl I should have lost more. I'm not eating nearly what I was eating before but staying under 900 calories a day. What is wrong with me? Why am I not losing? I feel like this was all a mistake and I'm going to just stay fat forever. The scale hasn't moved in about 2 weeks and my heart is broken.

Hey there,

Looking for some motivation. I started my surgery at 335 and now I am at 311 so that's 24 pounds. The problem is all that weight came off my first week and half and since then I haven't lost any weight. I thought I would lose a lot this first month especially since I'm starting off really overweight. I've been pretty lucky with my stomach handling things. I've been on soft foods since week 2. Should I have stayed in liquid longer? Can someone share their story please?

Mine came super early! The hormones are changed. It will come soon enough.

I am 3 days post op. I am home and it is so hard, I just want to eat. please don't judge me. I just want to have some scrambled egg or something small but don't think I can. Protein Shake isn't doing it for me.

I just had surgery this morning and I am in so much pain! Please help me see the light of the end of the tunnel. I knew I would be sore but I am in so much pain.
