I am finding myself heading into depression! I have not lost any more weight since I came home from the hospital which was 8/12. I am doing everything that I am supposed to do. I was under the impression that I would loose a couple of pounds every week. I'm starting to think I did all of this for nothing!

Good morning all, I just wanted to share how I was feeling this morning and get some feed back for you guys. I am 30 days post-op and I have only lost 16.4 lbs. last week I didn't loose anything. So most of my weight lost came during the first 2 weeks! I was sure that I would have lost more by now. What am I doing wrong? I must admit that I have been having a hard time finding a protein that I can drink without gagging. All of the ones that I've tried have been disgusting and I c...

Things went great with the surgeon. He said if I keep losing at this rate, I should be ready for a tummy tuck/skin removal this winter! WOO-HOO!

So this weekend made one month post op. I've lost 8.3 lbs since surgery and 6 inches -- 2 around my waist! I've been working out so hopefully I won't have a lot of excess skin!

It has hit me today, as I sit in my chair at work that I don't have my belly sticking out to where it would hit the desk. Oh and I can cross my legs more comfortably. It amazes me just how much I have loss in inches vs actual pounds, I have lost 24 lbs all together. But I believe in inches all over about 3 inches. I am noticing more energy and have pep to my step. My skin is a lot clearer. My watch band is shorter by 3 notches. the little things are what I am noticing. When I bend over I don't feel out of breath or I am going to fall over ( weeble wobble).
I am having a hard time with my sweet tooth, it is very hard to not want to get some ice cream or chocolate. Candy I can do without. I have no craving really for that, just chocolate and ice cream. I have gone as far as taking Popsicle and putting them in my mixer with almond milk and making like ice cream with that/ sometimes I have added un-flavored protein powder.
I feel better everyday. The energy is great to have with having younger kids and being able to have the energy to keep up. 😃

i didnt cach anything just had dizzyness for two days lol ive been told im alergic to cigarrette smoke lol my mom use to smoke but she quit befor e my grandpa died, yeah smoking isnt fun lol and yup
it is, but even dieting alone, you should lost weight,k exercising makes it better so your skin isnt lose when you lose weight, and it makes weight loss easier and just so much better. i get the reconmended hours of sleep but i still feel wicked tired.

Looks like my insurance is mandating a 6 month wait period.....which will not begin until July 7, 2015. That'll give me 6 more months to loose what I can on my own !!!!

If you love your skin, don't try Biotin, it won't stop your hair from shedding and it makes a lot of people break out. It isn't worth the risk, imo. The best thing you can do is create and environment that promotes fast regrowth. If your hair is going to fall out, nothing will stop it. a high quality hair Vitamin like, Phyto. Collagen supplements, and exceeding your Protein goals helps. Hair is protein. When I wanted to make my hair grow fast prior to surgery I always increased my protein.

Hi, Well I had my plication for 7 months. They removed it 7 weeks ago, But till this day I'm still loosing my hair I have huge bold spots that I can't hide no more only if I wear a hat, I started loosing it about 4 months after I had the plication done The Dr.told me it would stop. But it did not, and now that I don't have plication any more it still comes out like crazy. I’m taking Biotin, B12 Vitamins, and using Biotin Shampoo and conditioner but nothing seems to help. My Dr. told me to go to a Dermatologist so I can get Hormones shots on my scalp for hair growth. I think it was because of so much stress with plication complications .I will wait a little more on the Dermatologist maybe. Don’t know what to do

Not Loosing/ Or High Expectations
Ms skinniness replied to realwmnhavcurvs's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Don't give up hope. My pre-surgery weight was 209 and it came off rather quickly. It all depends on your metabolism. If you think your metabolic rate is slow, then do what you have to do to speed it up. Search the internet for solutions. Plus, the slower it comes off, the better off you skin will be. Your skin will have more time to adapt and will create less hanging skin. That is a big plus! Your doing just fine. Try not to worry or compare yourself to others losses.
