Ok so I am officially 2 1/2 months out and I have lost 34 pounds, I know it's good and all but I thought I would have lost more by now being that I can hardley eat more than a few bites of anything, any reasons why this is happening, and what can I do to pick up this slow pace. Open to suggestions...

Hey, I think you are doing great. I lost 21 lbs my first month and probably lost about the same lbs as you by 2 1/2 months out. Right now I am 66 lbs down, so you just need to keep doing what you are doing. It will come off.

That sounds great! I've definitely seen a common trend of about 20-25 lbs first mo, then 10 a mo after (for me considered to be doing really well)...so seems on track?

I feel really discouraged as well. Was sleeved on 4/25 and have lost 28lbs. Every time I get on the damn scale it doesnt move or its moved .something. Ive tried upping my calories and started going to the gym, but I was really hoping to at least lose 30 my 1st month. At this point I'm almost regretting my surgery again. A few wks out I felt the same way but then I started getting a little more upbeat, but cant help but question whether I did the right thing when I cant even lose 30 in a month and a half Everyone on here says these emotional swings are normal though, so I guess we just have to keep at it!

Sounds like you're doing great! 20-25 lbs in a month sounds pretty standard...and when wad the last time you lost 28lbs in that time period!! I definitely feel your pain with eyeing that scale and trying to will it to move but you had surgery for a lifetime, so don't get too down yet! In a year you'll look back and go, wow, I look soooo different!!
