In my head I know it's normal BUT....
not emotionally
I am in a stall and know it will pass but am really scared that I will be the one for who it doesn't I had surgery on 1/23 and have only lost 33 lbs I know that is ok BUT once again the unrealistic expectations are in my head I read about all these hugh losses and want to be one of them OH well thanks for letting me get that said!

i absolutely feel your frustration sister!! i had my rny 11/30/11 and i have only lost 42 lbs. i was told that being on the "low end" means i would lose weight slower because i had less to lose. it makes no snese to me, but my dr. does not seem concerned. I am having trouble with the protein supplements becasue they are just so nasty i cannot tolerate them, and during my approval process i found i have an aortic stenosis and will need heart valve replacement very soon, and so energetic exercise is limited for me at the moment. so, here i sit hoping i am not the one that this does not work for. i can not bear the thought, and just wanted to let you know that you are so not alone... i feel ya! 
Be well, and always - take care of you!

Never compare your progress to anyone else. Everyone is different.....and some folks may be embellishing!
Enjoy every single day of your journey-and try not to just focus on losing lbs--you can focus on new fitness goals, a cute new outfit, learning new recipes....the options are endless.

I agree with the responses that you've gotten, especially Kim's! You just have to let it go.
I had surgery 3 1/2 months ago and have lost 65 pounds, not a huge number at all. It was getting totally frustrating to me to see people that started around my weight that have lost way more and are hitting huge milestones (not in plus sizes any more, ONEderland, etcetera).
About a week ago I looked at myself and said "NO MORE." I'm doing the right things, eating mostly right, drinking plenty of non-caloric fluids, exercising more days than I don't and getting (nearly) all my vitamins in. I'm doing a good job and so are you!
Hang in there!!
