Need Ideas How To Lose Weight!

O it's been 2 weeks since surgery! And I've only lost 7 pounds! I am not able to eat eggs and mashed potatoes. I am walking but no extra exercises! So everyone else who had their surgery the same day has lost much more, around 19-31! I had a lot to loose. I was 127kg before surgery and now I am 120kg and I should only weight in at 70kg. I am 5"9

I am on medication due to an infection but other then that I am good! I eat eggs in the morning and soup or potatoes at night. I eat yogurt for a snack. HELP

Hi there, we all lose weight at different rates. You probably know that.

You are also on a medication due to an infection, that could be messiing your metabolism up.

Don't give up

Remember 7 lbs - is 7 lbs. closer to goal

:)

Things will get better, they really will. Eating so very little, following dr. instructions you can't help but lose.

best wishes

Hi :) please never use the word "only lost " instead say I lost 7 lbs :) . I think 7 lbs is a lot in 2 weeks . Try to not compare yourself with others . We are all different .

Is funny how much we want this weight to come off so fast but it took us years to put the extra weight on . The weight will come off , do not stress yourself . Stick with the sleeve rules and you will success. One day at a time . You are doing fantastic , good luck .

If you are down from 127 kg to 120 kg then you have actually lost almost 15 1/2 pounds since there is a little over 2.2 pounds per kg. before you get discouraged make sure you are converting the numbers correctly.
