I'm slow loser too! Keep the good work!

I'm slow loser too! Keep the good work!

It's very frustrating. I even hit a complete stall beginning on week 3. The scale didn't budge for 14 freaking days. I finally started upping my calories from 450 to about 700 and the scale is finally moving. Also started working out hard yesterday. Slow and steady wins the race, right? ;-)

Yes, I know it's frustrating, I was 2 weeks in a stall...then I started upping my calories, eat every 3 hours (hungry pains!) and the scale is moving now! So, you right, and be consistent! Good luck to us! lol

Slow loser right hea!!! Hw 242 (2011)..cw 199-200...since surgery 15 pounds. I exercise,eat, and didnt have any complications since surgery. Thinking I should up my calories bc it might not be enough. I will track the remainder of the week.

Hi everyone - Sleeved on September 25th - 3 weeks today and down about 19 pounds. You all are doing great. (I'm from Arizona)
