5 months today - 58 lbs lost. Only 16 more to go! Like others, I bounce up and down a pound or two - for a week or two at a time, then lose 1 or 2 lbs. And then bounce around again. I just keep doing the program, exercising, drinking my Water. I'm sure I will reach goal, but it may take a little time.

I was also sleeved 12/17. I have lost 45 lbs and wore a 24 preop. I was in 2x t-shirts but today wore a large and it fit well. It's only in the last week or so I have tried smaller clothes. More people have noticed the weight loss when I wear clothes that fit. Most of my weight is still in my hips and thighs so still in size 20 pants but the 18s almost fit. So although I am losing slowly it is still a consistent 2 lbs per week.

Keep up the good work. I think you'll notice some change in the near future. I think we are on a similar track

I was stalled forever. Recently I joined my fitness pal, and tracking food seems to have helped. I wish I had done it sooner. Good luck to you

Sleeved 12/26/12, down 76 pounds. Have my follow-up next week hopefully he will be happy, last time I was scolded for not losing enough. This will only be my 3rd visit with him, hopefully I can get more direction to keep losing.

That's ridiculous my dr is happy with a loss 1 lb or 30! He would actually like a 2 lb lost a week he says that's good pace! But good luck your doing awesome

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
