I am 4 months post op. I am very happy with my weight loss, though it feels like it's going slow. I am down 53 lbs. I started back doing cardio after 6 weeks post op and I am addicted to exercise.

Again, I feel fabulous and all my health indicators are great. I just wonder if others are experiencing slow weight loss. My doctor said all that matters is how I feel. I have to admit that it is really exciting to fit in a size 16 again!

Congratulations. You look great!

By the way, you're not losing slowly. At 6 months out I'd lost 53 pounds, so you're losing more rapidly than me if you lost this amount in 4 months.

53 pounds in 4 months is 159 pounds in 1 year if you look at the long term.

Anyhow, keep up the wondrous work.

Thanks for the information!

Thank you for such a great post! I love your new clothes. You look happy and excited, and that is so nice to see!

I am also finally in a size 16- and feel the same way...THRILLED!!

Thanks for the encouraging message. It helps to find others to talk to.

Wow!! I hope i look that great in 4 months... nicely done

Congratulations!

This is a an update. I am now down 59 lbs and I've started adding weights back into my workout routine to combat the sagging skin on my arms and stomach. I feel great!

I agree. With what every one is saying. That is great progress. Just think most diet programs say you can expect to lose 1-2 pounds per week.

you look amazing!!! keep up the good work!!!

I finally hit 60 lbs down, but it just keeps getting harder. I have to keep increasing the intensity of my workouts and record my food.

You can do it. Stick to your diet and exercise regularly. I am now down 65 lbs. It's going slow, but the scale is moving.
