just curious....i am down 10 lbs pre op, 35 post op, wondering if my progress is slow.....

I'm at 90 pound loss surgery 1/21/13 for the pass week I been up and down I started at 299 I'm at 209 24 more pounds to my goal 35 pounds to my nut goal but I think her goal would make me too skinny I'm 5'8 and I weigh 209 but most ppl think I'm 175 I carry my weigh so well

I have lost 51# since Jan 31 surgery...I am 8# away from my goal...I started at 209 and now I am 158....bad bad hairloss, but I'm happy the pounds are coming off at a nice pace.

I'm down 52 overall. I keep thinking I've stalled out, then I check back into my history a few weeks, and 10 or 20 pounds have dropped. It's just slow.

I also crave sweets - perhaps there's a cause-effect thing going on with the slow decline?!

SD was 1/4 and start weight was 240. I'm 5'8" and 56 yo. Bravo to you younger peeps taking care of this earlier in your lives than I did in mine. Keep being the losers you know you can be.

Down 65 today as of January 30th 2013. I need to update my profile pic, my face is so much smaller now. My personal goal is maybe another 20/25 pounds. I am unsure. If I never lost another pound I would be happy. I am not even trying at this point and the weight is slowly coming off. I am happy where I am. I don't know how to post a recent pic from my phone so if you want to see one go to Rycherchick@facebook.com

My personal Goal, as my doc does not do "goal weights" was to be down 80 lbs by my wedding on August 17, as of today I am down 75 lbs and still have two months to go!!! Do you know how HARD it is buying a wedding dress, and having the sales lady not believe you will loose weight? I've already had to take back one bought a 20 and four weeks later It was so big they could not alter it small encough... who would of thought I would ever have that problem? I LOVE my sleeve!!!

Jan 29.. Down 78 lbs!! Still alot to go though!

Geez...I hate to be negative Nelly. But' date=' here it goes. I was sleeved Jan 22nd. Starting weight 205 and I am only down 34 pounds at 171. I am stuck and can eat whatever I want without any negative side effects. Ugh! All willpower baby!![/quote']

You look amazing

As we January sleevers get further out from our surgery date is anyone else thinking about the honeymoon period ending and the 6 month"window", I realize I will have to amp my exercise up and weight loss cannot continue at this pace but previous posts have me a bit apprehensive about what to expect. I still have a large chunk of weight to lose .....

I been think about this alot I've been stuck at 90 pound lose for almost three weeks and it bothering me I could exercise because after the sleeve about 3 months after I had to have emergency surgery on my hernia so that kept me on restriction for some time I just came back to work last week so now it's time to get in the gym I'm have 25 to 35 more pounds to lose I really would be fine we're I am but hey a few more pounds won't hurt .. Like I ate a small slice of watermelon and I ate it all I was in shock .. But I'm extremely happy w my weightloss and others think I've lost enough but I have a goal to reach

Yes...just only losing a pound every once in a blue moon is frustrating. Feels like I have lost all I will lose and still have at least 40 more to go. Not even 1/2 way.

I feel the same way. sleeved 1/21 and down around 45 pounds. current weight 187. I've been playing with the same 2 pounds for weeks. can eat most anything. I average around 800 calories. I try to get up to around 1000-1100 at least once a week. I still need to lose at least 40 more.
