65 pounds in 6 months? That's ten pounds a month, or 2.5 pounds/week, which is pretty much perfect. I'm sure it feels slow compared to some, but that's amazing progress!

I'm not completely for sure. I've heard you lose the most the first year ... I've heard at 6-8 mo it slows down ... I've heard people still lose after 2 years. I don't know what is going to happen. LOL I'm just rolling with it!

I don't think there is a true answer to your questions, because everyone is different. My outlook has always been if the scale is still moving down things are great, if it slows or stops I wait a week and check again. Good Luck.

I'm also 6 months out (sleeved 2-8-13). I have been struggling the last month. I was 203 this morning (262 on surgery day) and keep going up and down 1 pound daily for the entire month. It is irritating, but I just believe that I've gotten to the point where it will be really slow now.

Im a slow loser too. I've lost 18 lbs in the last 6 wks. But I started at 174 (slipped lapband) so I knew Id lose it slower. I also know they sy the last 20 lbs are the hardest and I have about 26 lbs to go so I know I will really start slowing down. Already seeing that. The last 6 days I bounced begween 158 to 157. Tnis morning I finally made it to 156. So relieved the scale is finally moving.

It'll eventually all come off. I believe in the school of thought that the slower u lose it the longer ull keep it off

I get this if I don't chew well enough. Watch your chewing and see if that helps.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
