January sleevers......what's your weight loss so far?

[#Redy4chg.org 40]

I've been stuck in a stall for abt a month now. I was sleeved 1/21/13. Starting weight 215. Current weight 181.9. I keep fluctuating between 178 and 182. So frustrated. Gonna try going back to a liquid diet for a few days to jump start the loss again.

I do believe the less weight you have to lose...the slower it is. Your weight loss may be slow but you are going in the right direction. I also fluctuate up and down for days on end....then I will lose a bit again. My weight loss has slowed as I get further out. Make sure you journal all t your intake and exercise

I wish I can be less of a scale hawk. Wish the number was no longer important. I am down 106 lbs since 1/16 and want to lose 20 more for a goal of 145. Yesterday I was so frustrated because of the number on the scale. Was anyone able to get past the number and just be happy with the way they feel and look. Damn scale.

I'm 5months postop...sleeveed on Jan 31...sw= 206. Cw=155-157...my goal is 150...those last 5# are so hard for me to lose..but I realized I must go back to the basic...do a week of liquid diet then go from there, maybe that will jump start my weight loss again...ughhh...lol

I have been about to except the number on the scale I'm 6 months post down 97 pounds surgery. 1/21/13 Im 202 I have 20 more pounds to be at goal but I'm happy where I am I just want breathing room

We are only 5 ,6 months out....I understand we lose 1/2 of our excess weight in the first 6 months,1/4 in the next 6 and 1/4 over the next 12, or something like that. I know these are general statistics but we are all ages of that so I think we will be successful

51.4 lbs lost since 1/29/13, I'd still like to lose about 20-30 more!

I will be 6 mos out on the 9th and am sitting at 172lbs. In my head I know that number is high but honestly I don't think I would be unhappy if I didn't lose any more. I feel great. I'm wearing a 10/12 pants. I can't imagine what I will look like after losing another 27lbs to reach the top of my normal range. I'm 47 yrs old and have had 5 children. I guess I just never pictured myself looking stick thin which I think now, that would be about how I end up. Am I weird? Does anybody else have like concerns?

Been stuck for awhile...just dropped another 2 lbs to make it an even 100 overall!

I am 6 mo down on the 9th. I've lost 66 post op pounds so that would be 16.5 in the next 6 mo ( I'd be 196.5 and another 16.5 pounds would be 180 which would thrill me because I started at 289, 279 DOS. I'd be a 100 pounds down and in onederland!

I love this theory!!

Sleeved on 1/31 down 66. A lot of people are noticing. I am able to buy size medium and large tops since I am really small on the top.
