Please include start weight.

I was 3 months out on 12/18....my surgery was on 9/18

High weight: 199

Surgery weight: 177

Today weight: 137

The better, no diabetes and hbp meds!!

Apparently, I am as well.

I track everything and exercise an hour 6 days a week. Get my water and protein in. Oh well. I'm doing everything right and will continue to do so. Maybe our reward will be firm skin

I like the firm skin theory! Sometimes I am glad that it is slow because then I don't have people asking me questions constantly. If I dropped 60lbs in a matter of weeks, I would be fielding lots of questions!

Someone just started a new 3 month out thread..... She is down 65 lbs. wtf are we doing wrong ?

That's like DOUBLE!

I'm going on a diet

Do either if you have insulin resistance or pcos? Hormone issues can make things slower ( at least in regular dieting).

Also could it be a function of the starting weight? I mean it makes since that a heavier person could lose more faster?

Either way, from where I'm sitting 30 lbs in 3 months is fantastic! Well done to you both!

You're my new BFF!

Lol! Seriously, I haven't weighed 199 since my wedding day almost 9 years ago. And I've been trying!! To think I could be weigh that again just 3 months surgery.... Wow. I think I would just cry! And then go dancing! Lol

I'm not a doc and I don't know much about wls yet, but you should Celebrate your success to date!

No issues with either. Oh well super psyched I lost through Xmas. My starting weight was 247. Surgery weight 233.

I just looked back at my logs of when I lost the most. About 800 calories a day. I'm gonna try 800. I haven't been getting that many daily

I have PCOS, insulin resistance, and hypothyroidism. I'm surprised that I am losing so fast (64 lbs. in 3 months - I was 263 the day of surgery) because I have never lost weight this fast before. It was hard for me to lose any weight regardless of how much exercise I did or how good my diet was. While I keep my carbs low, 20-30 grams per day, I don't necessarily pay attention to my fat intake. I eat full fat cottage cheese and other cheeses, butter/margarine (when I do eat it) and full fat Peanut Butter. I do measure everything I eat, though, and include it all in my food tracker.

My skin is not too bad. My stomach and arms have some lose skin, and I'm sure it will get worse as I go along, but so far it's really not that bad. I do know I will have to have some plastics eventually.

Everyone is different and some of us just lose slower than others. It's not because you are doing anything wrong. As long as you stick to your eating protocol, the weight is sure to come off. Good luck, girls!
