Slow Weight Loss



Recommended Posts

I haven't been sleeved yet, but maybe you should think of it as for every ounce/pound lost is an ounce/pound you WILL NEVER GAIN BACK AGAIN :) Isn't that nice. Bet you couldn't say that before. By the end of the month, add up all those ounces/pounds you have lost so far and I'll bet you will be happy. I only hope I can follow my same words for myself, as I know I am a slow loser - I mean really slow. Good luck

I feel the same way! but the reality is, every pound lost is a step toward my goal. I get so caught up in other people's pace, that I am not noticing my success so far. We are all going to lose differently. I just make sure that I am doing the right thing (protein, Water, low carb, low fat, low calorie) and my body will do the rest. Hang in there, we are slowly but surely getting close to our goal :)

You need to see your nutritionist. We do have the restriction, but we still have to eat the right things. Can you give us a sample daily menu? Are you logging everything you eat or drink on Myfitnesspal or Fitday.com?

How much weight do you have to lose? What is your starting BMI?

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
