I'm A Slow Loser



Recommended Posts

It's very disheartening when the vast majority of people here appear to be posting their truly amazing weightloss results in such short periods of times and here I am 6 months out plodding along at 54lbs down and in the middle of yet another stall.

I WILL take that of course I will and couldn't have done it without WLS but only at 800 cals per day most of the time have good restriction but I'm not making big numbers. I really do hope I can make it to goal at this rate still have another 60lbs to lose.

Hi there! I wonder if you saw this post where I listed why some of us lose "slower" but are actually ahead of the game?

I had my surgery in December, 2013 I too am a slow loser. I started at 293 since surgery I been at 262 since. I have not lost on 2 months I at an 900 calorie a day. I must admit I haven't been working out. But I just joined a gym I wanna see what will happen if anything. I hate to give up when you want it sooooo bad. I have been good with my Protein Shakes I'm just at a lost. I will keep you posted once I exercise for 2 weeks straight to see if there are any changes.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
