So I'm feeling good. Back to normal. No problems eating, and I've lost 23 lbs. 7 pre and 16 post. BUT....I can't help but wishing I was losing faster. I'm know we aren't suposed to compare ourselves to others but it seems like all the other November sleevers are losing so much faster than me. And although I know its a marathon not a sprint and an average of 4 lbs a week is good I can't help but be frustrated.

What was your starting weight and height? Heavier people will almost always lose faster. As you get the numbers down, weight loss slows

I was 273.6 Hw. 266.6 on day of surgery.

I know, I expected fast loss too. I am 5 weeks out today and spent about two weeks at a gain and a stall. ;-(. We will get there.

i had my surgery on nov 26th and i have lost 33 lbs.....i dont compare myself with others.....one day at a time......it will come off.....just memba, we didnt gain it fast, so we shouldnt lose it fast......i think you are doing great!!! (*¯︶¯*)

Are you exercising? It's helped my weight loss a lot. (Ive lost 43lbs in 6 weeks including pre-op) I don't think losing slowly is a bad thing though. A loss is a loss! The person who I know who had this surgery 3 years ago and convinced me to do it lost 1lb every week for 2 years ... and lost more than half her body weight! No skin problems either!!

I was sleeved Nov 26th and have only lost about 12lbs, but i'm trying not to be discouraged yet.

Thanks for the support everybody! I do need to exercise more. It's helped that I have already had a lot if nsv!!!!

I am down 15 lbs from day of surgery I'm in my fourth week I two am a little discouraged. Going back to protein shakes every morning.. We will do this
