    Do it!

    I’ve found that making the Wednesday weigh just another way I need to stay accountable to myself and others. Anywhere you can find support during all this only should help

    @fulamuso and @cabookie11 everyone loses at different rates. I lost 2lbs this week and I'm happy with that cos it's in the right direction. If weightloss is slower, the less chance we have of loose skin and looking like a burst balloon. Don't be down or disheartened. Look at how far you've come. Fulamuso, if you're starting weight was 257 and you've lost 16lbs, that's like 6.3% of your TOTAL body weight OR 16.7% of your EXCESS weight!!! You're doing well. xxx

    My Wednesday weigh in, a day late.

    Pre-op: 291
    Surgery: jan 25- 281
    Current: 254

    Weight loss has slowed down a bit, in the last week or two. But probably my body making up for the quick loss so soon after surgery.

    Saw nutritionist yesterday, said I can basically start experimenting with anything, other than rice, Pasta, bread, salad, pork and red meat. Got past the puréed stage and feeling good. Have sometimes eaten a little too much. Never necessary to throw up or anything, but a very tired, uncomfortably full feeling comes on. Despite a complication a week post op, feeling great, no regrets.

    I was feeling the exact same way! My Nutritionist said to stop weighing everyday and not to believe everything you read on the blogs. People exaggerate. I was also not consuming enough calories. I am 6 weeks out and should be getting 600-800 a day. Towards high end if working out. I also lost a lot in first week. She said people who lose a lot up front slow down...but will catch up. Not weighing everyday and understanding this is my journey and it’s ok if different from others has helped a lot. You will also lose slower than people who have more to lose...so don’t compare yourself to others. I use Baritastic to log my food, Water and exercise. I thought something was wrong with me because I could eat my suggested portion sizes when people on line talk about only getting in a bite or two. My Nut told me being able to consume that is great. It means you are healing quickly and will get the nutrition your body needs to exercise. Be patient...work the program and let us know if you need some encouragement! This works....we are baby’s! It will happen![emoji106][emoji7]
