Everyone is different! Here is my loss :)



Recommended Posts

Hello all,

I had surgery on 11/22 which makes me 5 weeks and 4 days post op. I have seen a lot of posts today regarding stalls and comparing weight loss with one another. I did this the first week or so after surgery and drove myself nuts over it lol. I decided to make a post outlining my loss so far and to say that I am okay with it.

Yes, I had an immediate high loss but I am now down 7.2 pounds in the last 30 days which isn't even 2 pounds per week. However, I am okay with this :). I have been going back on forth on whether or not it's a good thing. I've thought to myself that I'm only 5 weeks post op and have only managed to lose 7.2 pounds in the past 30 days...but I'm okay with it! Everyone is different and it's not a race. I even gained two pounds two weeks after surgery but it's okay! I know that I am doing the right things and that's all that I can do.

286.4-Nov 22nd surgery day

277.0-Nov 26th 4 days post op down 9.4 pounds

269.0-Nov 30th 8 days post op down 17.4 pounds

271.0-Dec 8th 16 days post op down 15.4 pounds

265.2-Dec 22nd 30 days post op down 21.2 pounds

261.8-Dec 31st 39 days post op down 24.6 pounds

It's a different journey for each of us! It can be hard not to be discouraged to see someone loose more and faster then you. Knowing our bodies are different and your loss is what it is for you is a great attitude to have. Looks like you are doing amazing!

Yes, it is SO easy to get discouraged! I've been trying so hard to remember that each journey is different :).

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
