I am 17 weeks out from RNY today. I've lost 65 pounds, my goal is to lose 132, maybe a bit more. I'm worried though, because for the second half of the 17 weeks I'm only losing a pound or two a week. Some weeks nothing. At this rate I won't lose what I need to lose during my malabsorption window. I get about 800 cals/day, all my protein & water. I religiously track my food & exercise, don't cheat at all, although I do have some whole grain carbs daily, so I'm not carb free. I do cardio 4-6 X a week & do weights every other gym visit. I was a complete couch potato PRE op (in my defense I have MS which makes me very tired & morbid obesity did not help), so I know I'm building lean muscle which weighs heavier. I guess I'm just discouraged & making myself insane. My intellectual brain knows that I've gone from a size 28 to an 18-20 in 17 weeks but it's been another week with nothing lost. So discouraging!! Am I crazy & I should just shut up & be grateful?

My phone...is almost as evil as my scale.
