I have 12 weeks after surgery and I have lost 38 pounds only. Someone did this happen?

I have 19 days 25 pounds. I was told if your bot do big to begin with the weight comes off slowly.

What that means bot

I believe she meant If you're NOT to big to begin with the weight comes off slowly.

Typo lolz... If your really big to begin with you lose weight faster,but if your not that heavy the weight will come off slowly.

Yes when I type sometimes my itouch writes what it wants.

I am losing very slowly too... 9 wks post op = 27 lbs. My BMI was 36

I think you all should be extremely proud of such SUBSTANTIAL weight loss in less than two months. I know it's hard to be stuck in bodies we don't want, but you all are making progress. Any movement in the right direction is a major victory, given that most of us have been gaining weight the majority of our lives. Celebrate the change.

38 lbs is a lot of weight in 12 weeks be proud of yourself!!! That's 38 lbs you couldn't loose on your own!!

Focus all of your energy on following the protocol, weigh yourself no more than once a week (less often if you can stand it), and let the weight take care of itself. It's all about lifestyle changes and that's what this plan focuses your attention on. Sometimes you'll lose quickly. Sometimes more slowly. And sometimes not at all. It's all part of the process and practically everyone experiences all of them. Absolutely celebrate every pound you lose (you're doing GREAT) but also celebrate every DAY you follow the protocol - that spells long term success and lifestyle changes. Staying active is critically important in terms of speeding up your weight loss (and countless other benefits). Walk at least four times a week (more if possible). Outdoors or on a treadmill, your body doesn't know the difference. You're gonna love the new you!!
