I'm 4 months in my journey and lost 22 kilos. But I honestly don't feel a difference. Is it because I'm morbidly obese?

I'm 4mths out too and have arthritis in both knee's and they're just starting to feel some what better. Some days(rainy/cold) they still really hurt, but they are better.

Some things take awhile to even realize there's a difference. I just realized yesterday that I have not (knock on wood) had any problems with my sciatic , which I always had for years, every day.But didn't notice until yesterday, don't know when it stopped, but it did.lol

I've gone from severe obseity to morbid and now just a tick from obese, never thought being obese would make me happy.

Hang in there, you will start feeling a difference, I promise.

I am 5 months out and like you don't feel a difference, but if I think about it, I am getting a number of compliments and questions if I lost weight (even though the scale isn't moving), I have not taken an antacid since the first day of my pre op and prior to that I had tums at home, work, in my purse. I have not had indigesten or heartburn since before pre op. So I suppose those can all be things that I have noticed that are not related to the scale. Going for fill 4 today............so frustrated with the non existant weight loss (no gain) ugh

I am 6 mos out and down 57 lbs and feel great lots of painful joint pain gone, back pain gone, I look down at my body and cant believe what I see (with close on) it takes time so keep working on it. I keep telling myself "I've never been this low" "I've never been able to stay on a diet this long" and that has kept me going. 33 lbs to go and I cant remember when I have ever been this close to goal weightI I love losing weight now, its exciting and the scale moves in the right direction.... You'll do it just keep working it takes time and it does work.

I'm 2 months out and down 25 lbs. Like many here, the scale isn't moving but, this week especially, I've been told how good I look and how much weight I've lost! I must be losing inches, rather than weight. That's ok with me, because I've been eating pizza LOL

Hang in there, you'll see all your hard work pay off soon enough!!

Is everyone exercising? Cardio and weights r so important to weight loss.

I haven't been exercising b/c of my knee's ,plus having another surgery, but I did just get a bike and started riding it short distances, very excited about that.

That must be hard. Hopefully with more weight loss you'll be able to move better. I see a huge difference in how fast I lose when I work out.
