  • It's completely normal. People always think they aren't losing fast enough. Don't make the mistake of trying to pre-determine how fast you should be losing. And don't compare yourself to others. Stall

I was 244 the day I was sleeved I'm 224 today I was sleeved 9/26/12 so I think your doing pretty good :)

I was 239 preop, today i am 173, but keep in mind its been 6 months i was sleeved May 10, 12. You do have stalls, and more stalls, dont get frustrated. Take your measurements. I have went from a tight size 18 jeans to a comfortable size 10! Keep your eye on the rewards and celebrate those non scale victories!!!

It's completely normal. People always think they aren't losing fast enough. Don't make the mistake of trying to pre-determine how fast you should be losing. And don't compare yourself to others. Stalls are a normal part of the process. I know it's frustrating, but the sooner you embrace that, the happier your journey will be.
