HELLO, Checking in with my October buddies. I had the surgery Oct 1. It’s been slow lately, stats below. I’m not going to blame anyone but myself. But still in the right direction. Currently down a solid 78 lbs!

Hello, checking in. I had my surgery on 10/01/2019. As of today I’m down 73 points. I know it’s slower than most but I’m okay with that. Truth is I’ve allowed my self some carbs and sugar and I need to be better. Still feeling good and labs are good. Wishing everyone the best!!

Sorry, been tardy in logging on. My weight loss is slow. I’m down 70 lbs as of yesterday. . But feeling good and happy for the loss!!!!

This is how I feel @CapyCapybara.people who had surgery the same month as me and losing faster and I wonder what I'm doing wrong, taking vitamins before of after breakfast making a difference? the thoughts that go into my mind are sooo negative..... then I remember I'm a year from being a senior citizen and it's going to be slower and that's okay. I have pcos and years of being fat......scale is down every time I weigh so....how bad is that?!!! Love this board for support.

Can I join this club? I know this is for people who had the sleeve but I had the bypass on 10/01/2019 but am a slow loser and need y'alls support!! my stats are below.....

That's wonderful. Thanks for sharing your story and congrats for keeping it off!!!

That's a good point...thank you...not sure why I'm thinking this is a race...need to get out of that mentality. I stopped weighing every day which has helped my sanity.

Thank you, appreciate you sharing!

I haven't lost even half that much in the same time. I'm an idiot and obviously doing this wrong. Congrats to you!!

I had the gastric bypass on oct 1 and struggle a bit with my water and protein goals. I'm also a super slow loser but I'm still a loser! Started at 307, 285 ish (not sure they did KG for some reason) on day of surgery and now today I am 248.

saw this post was revived and realized I am the original poster - go figure! lol. I am a 49 year old female was 48 at surgery.... I also have pcos and am a slow loser. I started at 307 and was 285 on the day of my surgery on 10/01/2019. Today I was 251. I'm happy with the loss but I know I'm much slower than most. I'm actually becoming more okay with the slow loss thanks to the support of this board. 🙂I should also add that I have not done any exercise other than walking so hopefully once I do some exercise that will help.

@lingre I had my surgery the same day as you and am losing slowly. This board has helped (and hurt) saw someone posted they had lost 100 in 4 months. wow....that got me down because with pre-op and surgery on Oct 1 i'm only down 52. hang in there and PM me if you need.

Thanks everyone, I guess I needed my pity party, lol. You have made me feel better!!

I need to join this too!
