Slow weight loss is getting me down

I know that we all lose at different rates, but I'm almost 2 mos. post op, and this last month I have lost a total of 6 pounds! ): I have never lost weight quickly, but I was hoping for a bit more than this. I know that I shouldn't be whining, and 6 lbs. is better than nothing. I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced this slow weight loss, and did it speed up later on? I guess on the positive side, I never had a problem with any food. I seem to be able to tolerate just about anything that I've tried. (I haven't tried bread though) Just needed to vent a bit. Thanks for listening. Linda

Thanks to all of you that took the time to read and answer. This is a journey that is tough to take alone. I feel better hearing from you. It gives me the motivation to keep going. Proud to be on the "losers" team, even if it is at a snails pace.
