Weight Loss, Slowly But Surely

So, as of post-op Day 6, I had managed to lose 15 pds. Yes, I know, that's not bad. Of course, all along I've tried to prepare myself in that the weight would start slowing down once I started eating a little more normal, and walking. I started walking about 2 days ago, and to my surprise (though it shouldn't be), I haven't lost anything in 2 days : ( Yes, I know, I know. I didn't gain it all in 1 week, but I have to admit, it felt good seeing the scale go down & down each day. So, I went ahead & measured myself. Thank goodness, it looks like I lost an inch in my waist, thighs, calves & boobs.

Ok, as long as it keeps going down, I will settle down.

Great job! I've lost 42 pounds in 4.5 months. I've hit a plateau several times. I track everything I eat on myfitnesspal.com, workout 5-6 days a week, and make sure I take my multi and calcium. It'll pick back up soon! :) Good luck!

Your doing it the right way!I had my surgery may 9th in april my weight was 369.Today it's 278 before anyone says great job it has taken a toll on my health! Im on potassium and go for blood work tuesday if it's no better i get a stay in the hospital.It's not that i dont want to eat, it's after a half cup i get sick..Dr says it's a mental thing..What i've started to do is eat 6 times a day that gets me up to 800-1000 calories a day.The good thing is my blood pressure has not been this good since my 20's and i feel a whole lot better.While there have been set backs i'd have the surgery again!
