Nervous about 6 week appt



Recommended Posts

Tomorrow is my 6 week check up and I'm SO nervous about it! I am down 27 pounds after hitting a stall and I'm afraid th doc will think it's not enough. I've been increasing my Protein and finally started losing again but I feel like I should have lost more by now.

Are these normal feel

27 lbs in 6 weeks is great! and you should get cleared for exercise at your appt. tomorrow so then the weight will really start to fall off. i have 66 lbs in 4 months post surgery. always be happy about what you lose and happy about the exercise you do. you are the only one whose happiness you have to worry about.

You are doing great. Almost 5 lbs a week! More than 10% of your body weight lost already.

Unless your doctor gave you reason to believe you needed to hit a specific number by week 6, relax. Be proud of what you have done so far and enjoy!

Good luck at your appointment!

27lbs including pre op or just after surgery? I think 27lbs is great! I'm only down 10 since surgery and I'm 4 weeks out.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
