I'm trying to find out if I'm a slow loser or not. Also I want to see what others, who started around the same time as me, have been eating and how much they're working out.

Let me know! Thanks!

Highest weight: 270

Surgery date: 03/22/12

Weight day of surgery: 263

Current weight: 224

I am in the "slow loser" category:

Started process: October 18, 2011 -- 298 lbs

Surgery: 3/21/2012 -- 248 lbs

Today: 6/28/2012 -- 211 lbs

Goal: 148 lbs

Total loss: 87 lbs

% loss: 58%

Basically, I am averaging the same weekly weight loss before surgery as I am post-surgery. HOWEVER, I know I will reach my goal and I will maintain the healthy weight as a result of this amazing tool. I have moments of frustration that eating 800 calories a day and walking 6 miles a day isn't dropping weight like a hot potato, but then I adjust my thoughts to realize that this is a path I will be walking for the rest of my life, not a temporary fix.

I've suffered many stalls and ups and downs. But the weight is coming off. 31 to go

I was sleeved on Mar 19 and am down 48lbs

i was sleeved 4/10/12 and down 41 pounds so far

I was sleeved on 4/11. I am sown 60 lbs including 2 week liquid pre-op. I have hit my first stall, trying to shake things up and get this weight loss to start again...in time. :-)

Hi,

I was sleeved on 3/21. Down 59 lbs total to date. 12 lbs of that was lost pre-op.

I was sleeved 3/28. I have lost 62 lbs to date. that includes pre-op diet.I keep feeling like I am slow because I have stalls for a couple weeks, then I have a weight loss. Had my 3 mo check up. My surgeon said I am doing great, that I am right where he wants me. I love my sleeve! I LOOOOVE it!

I was sleeved 3/21/12. I have lost 91 lbs total -- 50 lbs pre-op and 41 lbs post-op. I am losing at the same rate post as I did pre; approximately 10 lbs a month. I had a stall at weeks 3-5 but have stayed fairly steady since then. I finally feel "normal" and am excited that I will maintain this weightloss which I never was able to do before being sleeved. I have had relatively few difficulties outside of constipation. I get all my proteins, liquids and vitamins in daily and have found I have the best weightloss success when I eat a variety of foods and stagger my calorie counts (900 one day, 750 the next, 825 then 800, etc.) I have made my wardrobe "work" for me because I can't afford to buy clothes in multiple sizes, but today I discovered (big smile) that I went from a size 28 to a size 18. I kept saying outloud, "Really!? Really!? Size 18? I haven't seen this in 20 years!"

I was sleeved Mar 29th. Starting weight was 330. Current weight is 251. Lost 79 lbs. I have been lucky and have had no major stalls. I am losing constantly. Im sure a stall is coming tho. I exercise daily and can only eat about 600 calories.

Surgery March 12 and down 63 lbs so far!!!!!

I was sleeved 3/13 and I'm down 49 lbs. I could have never gone from 260 to 211 without the sleeve. Last year I did adipex for 6 months and lost 23 pounds and gained it all back in 2 months. I agree with looking at percentages. I started out wanting to lose 100 pounds. I am down 49% of that 100 pounds already! Happy losing!!

We were sleeved the same day!
