6 Month Update- Upset

Carmen you are doing just fine.  Don't let the PCA or any other statistics dictate where you should be at right now.  It took you how long to gain this weight?  Remember, it's not a race it's a long marathon.  You will get there, just give yourself a break.

Your weight loss is more than realistic...girrrrrl, you have lost 100 pounds...!!!!
77 #s since surgery....that is amazing...!!!
Don't sell yourself short....That is 100 pounds you can kiss so long gone...!!!
Enjoy that success, sweetie...you have worked so hard, to think you have not
done well....I say, celebrate....!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think you are kicking serious booty with your sleeve!  Don't let them get to you! 

Carmen:

Everyone has given you great advice.  Bottom line, celebrate your weight loss.  I would love that PCA to walk in your shoes for a bit.  She might just learn some empathy.
This is NOT a race.  This is you  living your life and dealing with whatever life throws at you and handling it to the best of your ability.  BTW, 100 lbs is nothing to sneeze at.
Best,
Marci

I think you are doing AWESOME! Seriously. I haven't lost 95 pounds and I am almost 6 months and then my progress is phenomenal. I agree it's not a race and it's individualized. Everyone is different.

Ridiculous!  I'm a week or so from my 6 months and there is no way I'll be at 90-95 lbs.  I've lost ... what does that say down there?  74? 75 since surgery and 90 over all :P  I'm pleased with how I'm doing and YES we all lose at different rates.

You are doing FANTASTIC!
You know what, doctors are just people.  Two of my younger brothers are doctors.  And trust me, they were a pain in the butt growing up!!!  Doctors aren't gods, they aren't even super-people.  They are just people like the rest of us who make mistakes and say things they shouldn't say.
You have just lost an INCREDIBLE amount of weight in 6 months.  I am proud of you!!!!
Great WORK!!!!! 

I'm going at the speed I want to.  I didn't want to lose weight too fast (for me).  I like for my skin to be able to keep up with me plus I don't like having too few calories in a day for many reasons etc.  Everyone just needs to do what they feel comfortable with.  You have done great! As long as you keep losing that's all that matters.  :)
