I'm Liking Myself Again!

I was a little disappointed with the fact that next week I will be 1 month post op and I only lost 12 lbs. Then I refocused, realized I never lost that much that quickly and decided to focus on nsv's. I am down 2 sizes, my feet shrunk, my confidence is up, and lastly I went to the mall today for some shopping and for my daily walk and even got some admirers. Also for the first time in awhile I wasn't ashamed to be seen with my very thin sister!

You're doing good! Keep up the good work. You'll be thin before you know it.

Star,

I can totally relate, I too am a slow loser, but like you I had to give myself alot of pep talks. Also, I measured myself...a friend that had the surgery the same day as I lost 20 pounds in three weeks and ten inches and I lost ten pounds and 20 inches (six in the waist!). Soooooo...the scale is only half the story and inches the other!

I too am feeling better about myself...went shopping and bought once size down than before--Yay!

Way to go...keep up the good work.

Yayyy!!! Congrats!!! Let's rememeber slow and steady wins the race lol gives us opportunity to keep up with skin and keep it off! I too have to stop.comparing to others journeys and enjoy my own!

Slow loser here too, but you look fantastic and it sure looks like you've lost more! I just broke a two week stall where I lost no weight at all, but still dropped a full dress size. Betting you will have a similar experience!

I'm still hoping it picks up in the upcoming months, but if not ill take what I can get!

You are doing awesome! Keep it up! Just wanted to tell you even tho you don't see it on the scale doesn't mean it's not working. I would always see it on my clothes then on the scale. I'm a year out and haven't lost anything since dec. but I've gone down 3 sizes. Just remember your body may be redistributing the weight. Good luck!
