It feels like I am losing very slowly...July-->October only 4 lbs... <_<

I guess this is why skinny people get so happy when they lose 5 lbs...it gets damn hard after awhile.

THIS IS CONSIDERED SLOW?????? I would think you are right on target, or even a fast loser!!! And this is another reason I hate going on these boards where people who have lost 70 pounds "vent" about slow weight loss!!!!!!!! Really??????

I'm so glad everyone has started using the thread. I consider that I am a slow loser in comparison to the rest of the may sleevers who have lost 60+ pounds.

I am floating around 204-200lbs and have lost 41lbs. I was sleeved may 7th and seriously feel like I'm lagging behind everyone else especially now that I'm coming out of a 6 week stall. I get annoyed, frustrated and upset all the time. Everyone speaks about how good things are and I am seriously fighting to loose a pound.

I think my issue is that I wasnt drinking Water. I know that's dumb but it's what I did. I started drinking water on Saturday and I think the scale is moving. Not by much but at this rate I'll take anything. My official Weighin date isn't till Friday though So I won't know for sure till then.

I am a May sleever. What is your definition of a slow loser?

How has your journey been so far?

In comparison to the rest of the May sleevers who have lost between 50-70lbs I consider anything less than 45 a slow loser. But that's my opinion!

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
