Type of Surgery, What was your starting weight, What are you eating.. e.t.c

On exactly what diet have you ever been on to bring your expectations up above losing half a pound A DAY?

You are making wonderful progress! Keep your chin up. Keep in mind, slower losers get less loose skin ;)

It's a marathon, not a sprint. You'll be fine!

oh, and stalls happen. body is just adjusting to all the changes, so the scale might not move for a while. my longest stall was maybe 4 or 5 weeks...i was like ahhhhh! lol but it's good :) when they happen, and you need some motivation, check your tape measurements or try on something new...oftentimes during a stall, the scale doesn't move but those inches keep falling off.

I feel like we are in the same spot. I am 40 days out from bypass. I lost 70 before surgery so I am telling myself I already lost the easy weight. I am just focusing on my Fluid intake and my Protein tracking and how I have a giant pile of clothes to donate because they are way too big! Good luck!

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
