Hey guys I had surgery March 3rd 2021. I am literally 2 days shy of 6 months and I am livid. I eat healthy, drink water all day, exercise everyday one hour and I didn’t hit my second weight loss goal and I doubt I will by my 6 month mark. I am 5’4 my pre surgery weight was 268 and I’m now 173. My overall goal is 145. I have hit several stalls month 4 and 5 not sure why. What are your stats and have you hit any stalls? When did your weightloss slow down what did you do to get the pounds back to dropping. My dr is happy with my weightloss but I am devastated by the slow process.

You've lost 101 lbs!!! That's fantastic WooHOOOOOO!

I’m still pre op and after reading some the posts from people who have lost almost 100 pounds in 6 months but aren’t happy, I’ve decided to skip all these many wt. loss goals and just lose weight. Too stressful. I’d be jumping for joy if I ever lost 15 in one month.

It has been 13 years since I began my journey with many ups and downs, failures and victories... And it is still fresh in my mind how it felt then and sometimes now to have no control over food. I am thankful for having the opportunities that I have had to help me. Even losing 1 lb. a month, I am happy that I am not gaining 10. Better to research on ways I can improve emotionally, mentally, physically to take care of myself in order to beat this monster problem for me that had plagued me my entire life, obesity. I think too high of expectations on WLS can cause many people to fail or worse, depression.
