bonnieS reacted to Introversion in All of 3 pounds in one week. 3 weeks out. Pissed.
I'm three years out...I lost 15 pounds the first month and 12.5 pounds the second month.
Thereafter, all of my losses were single-digit (1 to 7 pounds monthly). I was a slower loser and it took me nearly 18 months to lose 100 pounds.
The speed and rate of your weight loss doesn't matter nearly as much as your ability to keep it off for life. I'm dancing on a cloud because this is the first time in my live I've been able to maintain any type of weight loss.
Weight loss doesn't matter as much as weight maintenance. Society focuses too much on shedding pounds as quickly as possible when 95+ percent end up regaining. Weight maintenance is the key.
Good luck to you.

The sensation of pressure can also be caused by eating too quickly, taking too big of a bite, or not chewing each bite thoroughly. Be aware of how quickly you are eating as well.
Its something I’ve had to work on as a fast eater.

We all heal and tolerate foods differently. I could not handle cheese other than 2% cottage until about the 4th week I think? Or at least 3 1/2wks. I'm 6 weeks today and STILL haven't tried the ricotta bake. Think it would sit like a brick.

Certain foods will be tricky for different people. Fish (the softest meat) would sit in my chest and give me awful discomfort, chicken salad would pass just fine. You'll have to experiment a little and see what works for you.

This is correct. Don't judge all foods by your reaction to this one, just try new things and if they give you trouble back off them for now.
