Did your weight loss slow down and when



Recommended Posts

I am wondering if and when your weight loss began slowing down. I know it must start slowing down eventually closer to my goal weight but I am just kind of curious when everyone started to notice it getting harder to get the scale to go down. I am really enjoying the numbers right now but trying to prepare myself for the day when I get on the scale and it isn't so encouraging. Right now I am losing about a pound a day and I am super happy with that, I go back to the Dr on the 6th of January and hopefully will get the go ahead to start working out with a trainer. Right now I am limited to just walking on a treadmill and wearing some silly weights on my ankles and wrists while I walk but really wanting to start doing a bit more weight training.

I had a hernia repair and some other minor work done while they did the sleeve so I have to wait the full 6 weeks to do anything more and that is bumming me out but I will get there.....

When I hit month 4. First three months I lost in the double digits (23,19,21 pounds) but after that it was single digits with the one exception being in July when I lost 10 pounds.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
