 Hi guys, 
     Just thought I'd give alittle update. I had my surgery on May. 31. Since then i've lost 27 pounds. I know it sounds crazy but I feel like everyone else is loosing faster than me. Although including my liquid diet it has been 42 pounds. I can surly feel a different. I've gone from a size 28 to a 24 in three weeks :). I know I'm probably just going through a stall at the moment. Anything you guys have done to loose faster? Or break a stall? Probably a silly question. :)


Thanks !

9 pounds a week? Wow.....that seems like a lot...it's more than a pound a day. I wouldn't call that slow at all. Good job!

No...you're pretty much on track if not losing more than usual. I'm almost 4 months to day PO and I have lost a total of 64lbs. I don't look so much as how much weight have I lost but how are my clothes fitting on me...and I'm here to tell ya...they fit GOOD!!! I have gone from a 22-24 to almost a 16 (kinda in between right now) and everyone has noticed the change.

You're fine..just keep doing what you're doing and you'll see the inches melt away and soon you'll look in the mirror and say...HELLO YOU SEXY THING YOU!!! LOL!

 I was sleeved one day before you on 5/30/12. I have lost 30 pounds. I feel the same way as you do. I am definitely a bit discouraged and I feel a bit slower than others. From what people have said, I guess we're doing good.

Count yourself lucky. I'm 2 weeks out and have only lost 3 lbs (plus the 9lbs I gained in the hospital). I haven't been able to exercise yet and am a lightweight but still I think I should be losing more.
