Thanks everyone. I appreciate all the responses. I guess I’m just a little down and feeling stressed today. I’m use to food being my comfort. Now that has changed it’s taken some getting use to. One of my biggest fears is this TOOL failing because my lack of will power. I know we all screw up. I I honestly do eat right 90% of The time. I just had a off day or 2 with the Snacks and it has me down. Im going to try to push harder and trust the process. Thanks again guys [emoji8]

Hey don’t get discouraged!!! I felt the same way at first when my surgery mates were way ahead. I had to stop and think about. How hard was it to loose weight preop? Some of these success stories your looking at are amazing but not typical. You need to remember your BMI wasn’t as high as some others that had the surgery. Everyone progresses differently. Everyone has stalls as well while you may not be losing a number on the scale you are losing inches. Are you taking progress pictures and measurements? How are your clothes fitting? I had my DS on 12-8-17 and am down 39 lbs (the DS should have faster weight loss) I notice that the days I’m stalling are the days I didn’t get my Water or food in. Do you track your food? I use the free app called Looseit and it tells me how much protein/fat/ carbs. The more I eat I loose the day after.I also started to watch DR V on YouTube. He is a WLS Dr out of New Mexico. He records his seminars for patients after surgery. It may help you look at life after the Sleeve differently and give you the push you need to keep going.
Here is one small clip so you can find him on YouTube.

Hey, thanks for the response. Yes I take pictures and see big differences looking from that aspect. My family and friends seem to see more than I. Idk I just don’t see the progression others see. I loook bk and found this picture and I see a big difference. Some days I just don’t. Most days are better for me. I guess I’m just having a moment

I’m feeling really discouraged right now. I’m 7 weeks out and I’m fluctuating between 248/246. My weight day of surgery was 266. I’m losing weight super slow. Idk if this is working well with my body. I’m starting to think this weight will never come off I’m just now trying to get into a workout routine. Has anyone had anything similar happen with them
