Well it turns out my 3rd week stall was just the beginning I am losing very slowly maybe if lucky 2lb a week. While any loss is ok I could lose that just doing weight watchers and have lost more weekly doing Optifast. I guess I was hoping for a couple of months of 3-5lb weekly loses minus the notorious 3rd week stall before settling into a slower pace. But looks like I am firmly in the slow losers club from week 2 onwards.

I am trying to be accepting of this any fellow slow losers want to give me a pep talk or new slow losers want a whine like me lol??

Thank God I'm not alone! I lost 25 pre-surgery (over 4 months of diet changes) & 25 since. . .stalled for almost 2 weeks. I was sleeved 8/12 and starting to wonder why. Will this end??

Well I officially handed over the batteries to my scales to my husband this morning I can't take it any more! I have been meaning to do that for a week, but i kept postponing it, but after gaining a lb over night after weeks of barely loosing anything I've had enough!

I will buy myself a wrist pedometer on my way home from work and concentrating on upping my steps daily as goals instead and see if i can switch my concentration to that and see how long i can go without cracking my resolve to weigh in!

I am a revision from Lapband and I am a slow loser too. I have averaged 1.5 lbs a week, but it has stayed pretty consistent. I am not disappointed at all! I feel great, and since it has been slow but STEADY I know the weight will continue to come off. I think of it like the Turtle and the Hare.... I might not get to goal as fast as some, but I will still get there.
