6 weeks post op

6 weeks post op. Tolerating things very well. I am on solid foods as I can handle. Still a few things I haven't tried but most part I feel great after eating. I am measuring I an getting in my protien and Water 95% of the time.

Rny was Nov 7th. But since my pre op diet I have only lost 43 lbs. I am feeling like this us so minimal. They say don't compare but how hard is it when I see people's weight just shed. I walk everyday. hard to keep positive when it just never feels like enough. Maybe it's all brain games for me or maybe I am too excited to start noticing myself but I still feel like the 300 +lbs girl. I question if I'm not eating the right things even though it's all mostly protien. Don't get me wrong I am proud to say I am 40 lbs lighter but I just don't feel it's enough.

Just needed a little vent this is my safe zone ;) I love you guys here.

  • 40 pounds in 6 weeks??? That's awesome. Keep up the good work. Stay positive. If you don't feel the scale is moving, you might just be in a stall. It'll pass. Sent from my iPhone using the Bariatr

  • Ditto AC3!!! That's incredible! It does seem that the weight loss rate varies from person to person. I can tell you not to compare your journey to others but I'm sure at times I'll be doing the same.

  • I am almost 7 weeks post op and I have lost 27 lbs. Rejoice!!! I'm ready for my next 27 lbs to leave!

As much as possible Celebrate your success thus far! I personally think you're doing great! Your success is motivating people like me who are at the 5 lb loss mark! Keep it up and stay positive. You've got this!

This is Day 6 and I have gained 15 pounds. My blood pressure went dangerously low. They helped combat that with extra fluids. I know in my mind this will change, but it's frustrating. Hoping it goes down some by the time I see my surgeon in 18 days.

Your progress is wonderful. Just stick with your plan, and be proud of any loss you have. You're doing gread!
