To reach goal, I need to lose a total of 150. I have lost 80 at 6 month. The last 3 months have been slow. I wanted to have 100 lost by 4th of July, sadly I won't make that. The total includes my preo-op diet. I have lost a little over 50% to goal.

My surgery was 1/13 and I have lost 51 lbs. I only lost 4 last month. I stepped up my workouts and expect more this month, maybe 5 or 6. It has slowed down from those glorious early days of losing a pound a day...

Hi, I was averaging 10 lbs a month and down sixty by my sixth month. I don't think you are a slow loser.

WOW - I love reading others success! Weight loss sure does vary by person... it is hard to not get frustrated.. I feel like I am a slow loser too, then boom, in one week I lost 4 pounds, which makes my monthly loss look good! or good to me at least! I will take any loss I get!

My stats are below..just for the record.. I only weigh myself once a week, every Wed.. . Since the first Wed in June, I have not lost one single pound :( I was so hoping to hit the 250 Lb mark on my 6 month surgery date, but not going to make it.... thats o.k... I know what I am eating is in line, I know that I am kicking butt on exercising.. the weight will come off, I just need to keep on the right path. Good Luck to you, and dont be hung up on the scale...it can be frustating.

I will be 6 months out on July 3rd, I am currently 79 pounds down. I am working out pretty hard, it is true that the last 20 pounds are the hardest.:blink:

I've lost just over 80 pounds and i'm 6 months out. I've hit a rough patch this last few weeks - loss slowing right down. It's strange because I've been amping up the exercise. I have been on some medication lately that causes you to retain Water though so I'm hoping I don't slow down for long.

Don't get discouraged - focus on the future and good luck :)

Really can't remember anymore, but in 12 months i lost 150lbs, have been stablized at the same weight for 6 months and would like to lose about 20 - 30 lbs more. . . but if it doesn't happen, it doesn.t happen.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
