have any of you had a slow process in weight loss?

I was wondering if any of you had slow weight loss and think maybe its due to the fibro? I am 6 months out and at 54 lbs lost Annrenee

Hi Annrenee  It is hard to say with the little info you gave. I am 1 year out, I am 5'2 and started at 276. I was 246 the day of my RNY and I am 154 today!  I am down 120 pounds all together. I would like to lose 10-20 pounds more. 10 pounds a month sounds about right to me. We all have our slow times that can throw off your average at a given moment. Hang in there it will come off! I hope this will help you.                                                                                             Nancy

Namcy, Thank you I had rny april 24th 07 about 6m ago and I have lost 54 pds.  I would think I would have lost more but I havent but I am still working toward it,  I started at 233 and now at 179 and want to lose another 40 lbs.  Having fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue is a problem with exercise but I do my best.  Thanks for your encouragement it does help. Annrenee

I am/was a slow loser also.  Lap Band 06/06/06:  225/145/140.   My average per month is really low and I would often wonder why my loss was so slow but I do know that I don't exercise as hard as I did when fibro was not so bad. A lot of edema/swelling issues as well.  Taking Lyrica and worried about the weight gain but still trying to maintain. Kootenay

kootenay, I was on lyrica,  but the cost was just to much,  here since surgery i was able to get off and lower doeses of meds and bam first it was 2 hormone replacement meds off those now because of side effects and now 2 more for IC of the bladder,  I do feel taking meds slow our weight loss even though you had lapband and I had RNY we both have our tools to help us.  4/24/07 RNY 233/179/140. Thank you for your response  Annrenee

Never thought of it......  I had surgery Nov 05 weighing 272 I lost down to 225 and that is all I have lost!! Except now I have weight gain the last 6 months with my meds!!  Really depressing!!!
