I was 258 day of surgery Oct 22, today 7 months later I'm 177. I just feel I have this mental block that I'm not going to lose enough. I'm working out and staying around 600-1200 calories. Just weight loss has slowed lately. Am I paranoid or is it normal to feel this way? Thanks

I try to work out daily even if it's just a few small things.

That is still great success....maybe you need to increase your exercise or change it up. Sounds like you hit a plateau.

Thank you! I'm trying to do more. Get out walking more. Did first 5k last week and pushed double stroller. That was something big I did for me. Just panic sometimes and obsess over everything at moments. Do you weigh week of your period of and weigh ins?

Date of surgery 262, i am down to 183 and i am wondering if thats all the weight that i will lose?....... No matter how much i run / workout, i cannot get smaller :/

How far out are you ?

jessiam... how tall are you? What is your goal weight? The closer you get to goal the harder it is to get there. You know those people you have hated your whole life that say... I just need to lose this last 5 pounds!!!! We are now those people.. lol!!

That's right! That's my mom right there. I need to lose 5lbs and she does. Now I'm the 2nd smallest in the family besides my youngest sister. She's 103 lbs

I'm 5'7 176.8 this morning (period ending today). Goal weight 130-140 ish.

I have the same problem I'm 9 months out and have only lost 101 pounds

My weight loss has stopped lately so I started running to lose weight

As I got further in my journey the weight loss has slowed. In fact I stopped getting on the scale everyday because it never really changed. I weighed myself this week and I had actually dropped a few more pounds. I am also still losing inches because my pant size is still getting smaller.

My doctor told me right away that once my weight gets under 190-200 pounds, the weight will come off slower. That I will just need to make sure to keep doing exactly what I've been told to do and it will come off just not as fast as it did before.
