I'm an extremely slow loser also.. For no other reason than.. Well, I'm an extremely slow loser.

Thank you.

My surgery was 11-14-12, when I went in for my first post op appointment my surgeon was disappointed that I hadn't lost more... But then he realized the % of body weight was right on target. We all have different situations the # of lbs isn't telling the whole story! I personally have been trying to over come my "old" self- bad habits! I have come here to try to get motivated to continue with the change.... The surgery is only the beginning of this new life. I pray you find the support you need!

I think it's awesome you only weigh yourself once a month! I do the same thing! I was sleeved 1/15 and was weighed 1/22 by my surgeons office then again yesterday by my pcp. I don't want to get hung up on numbers or scale obsessed! 25lbs is great! Keep up the good work!

I was.notjudging you. I was just shocked at 3 moss out that is all you lost. Everyone is different. Im just saying that for myself if that was all i would have lost three mos Pitt i would question my doctor. If you ate happy with it that's all th

at matter s. I too only have 60 more

to go and i will be happy. Good luck to you. :)

I'm sorry but I had to comment on this. Saying only 25 pounds is exactly why there are so many people out there comparing themselves to others weight loss. Everyone loses differently, and at different rates. As far as ONLY 25 pounds.....just think...she has lost on average 8 pounds a month, which is wonderful. She only weighs herself once a month.....which is fantastic! And she has probably hit that dreaded stall that we all get...which you probably haven't been sleeved long enough to get yet. I want you to remember that statement further down the road when you are only losing a pound or two in a month...and you will be dying for 8 pound numbers. ;)

I'm not trying to be critical, I just wanted you to know that not everyone's going to drop 20+ pounds every month. :)

Welcome to the site! I am so thankful to see someone knew say that they only weigh once a month! This is awesome! I continue to say again and again...stop weighing yourselves daily, or even weekly...it will drive you nuts. Go by your clothes....are they lose? Did you go down a size. I was a size 26-24 and now I am a size 7-10... Don't need the scale to tell me I lost weight! Lol anyhow welcome to the site!

That was supposed to say loose! Lol

Um not trying to be critical against anyone. I know everyone is different. I was at a lower BMI and my doctor told me how much i will lose the first 3 mons. I'm expecting it to happen. I only want to lose 80 pou.ds. .i wasnt critizising her all i was saying is that i was surprised and if that was me i would be mad cuz i was told to expe ct different results. . I was a lower bmi too. I didnt mean any critisisim of the original poster.

In fact it is 3 months, 8 weeks she has lost on average 2.08 lbs a week! That's perfect!!

Welcome, pop over to the MX board, there are more of us who have lower BMIs to start with. And, also understand you don't have monthly check up with your doctor.
