Only 25 pounds? Wow what does your Dr say? I had surgery on Jan 30 and have lost 27 pounds in 2 weeks.

To only lose 25 pounds in 4 mos for me would not even have been worth the surgery. Tell us more.

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

Everyone doesn't lose like others.. We. Are. All. Different!

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'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.

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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
