My surgery was done on 4/28, and I have only lost 24 pounds. I try not to get discouraged after reading so many people go through slow losses. I was told that the more weight you have to lose, the quicker you lose it. Has anybody heard this?

Gosh, everyone sounds just like me. I expect to loose weight everymorning when I weigh, and I know that's just not possible. I'm 3 1/2 wks post op and have lost 20 pounds, but I sure would like to see a quicker loss.

My wls was on April 28th. Every few days I feel wiped out. I take 30 minute walks every morning and then I feel the need to just sit and relax for a short time. Some days I feel like I'm back to normal. I thought the low energy was probably due to such low carb intake. Also, I really dread taking these awful protein shakes, so yesterday I bought Nestle's Quick sugar free and added 1 tsp to my Designers Chocolate drink. I can't really tell if it makes any difference, but can't give up trying! ( can't have milk yet)
