I stopped coming to this forum because I am losing soooo much slower than people on here. I am 50 and post menopausal, so I knew it would be slow and I am not hard core dieting. I eat what I want, just a lot less of it! Had several weeks if being really sick and have been inactive too, but today did some before and after pics... I has surgery 2 1/2 months ago.

My surgery was 2-18 and I've not LOST 50, I AM 50! LOL I've lost 34 since surgery and 43 total.

You look great! Sometimes slow and steady is best for long term results. Keep it up!

Slow losing = good!

You look great! I am in the 50's (hahaha at least for a few more months anyway) and weight does come off slower. But that's OK - this is a journey we'll be for for the rest of our lives......and since I plan to be here for a L O N G time, especially now that I am getting so healthy, I've got time.

My weight loss is going very slowly now and my medical team & personal trainer all say that it is a good way to lose. I think it's helping me to work on developing more patience with myself.

Just keep to your medical team's plan and it will come off.

Good luck, keep us all posted - we're here to support you.

You look fantastic! Slow and steady wins the race!

I am 9 weeks out and am 52. I knew it would be slower for me because I have always been a slow loser and at our age, our bodies don't seem to want to give it up! I am not doing low carb, just healthy rounded meals with of course Protein first. I just hit my second major goal of another 10% of my body weight. It's going slow but it's going!

Congrats to you! You inspire me!

And yes, 50's are great! I My favorite decade so far!

I m 49 soon and sleeve 2/27 I've lost 43 pounds but I'm changing sizes and loosing inches. I went from 22/24 down to 12/14 top and 16 pants.

I'm slower but I'm looking at lasting results.

Funny story at work I had to hold up my extra large pant. That great . But got remember to wear my sexy underwear for when they fall. Lol

Sleeved on 2-18 too. I'm down 46 lbs total including pre-op. Our stats are pretty close. You look great!
