Surgery 8/6 and I've lost 54 pounds. I'm halfway to goal. Keep up the good work! I doubt all the time but I just keep holding on. Don't give up!!

I'm sorry that you feel discouraged, but 58 pounds in 6-7 weeks is great. Why do you feel like you won't loose the weight? Remember why you started this process in the first place. Enjoy the ride. sometimes it's bumpy, but eventually you will get to your destination.

You're doing really, really great. You've lost 1/3 of your weight and you're not even 2 months from surgery? That is astounding.

I've lost 55 pounds including 15 pounds on the pre-op diet and am 2 months, 3 weeks out.

You are doing awesome! No doubt about it! My surgery was exactly one month before yours. I don't weigh until tomorrow. I only weigh on Mondays so I don't lose my mind! But as of last monday which was 11 weeks post-op I had lost 39 lbs. Only 3 of that was pre-op...so 36 lbs. That is about 1/3rd of the weight I need to lose...in 11 weeks...actually 10 weeks since the scale at 11 weeks was the same as 10 weeks. You did that in 8 weeks. AMAZING!

It doesn't always feel real to me either and there are many times that I have my doubts. The scale didn't move at all for last weeks weigh in. It's scary when that scale doesn't move. You know that everyone has stalls at some point, but there is always that doubt that messes with your head and makes you wonder if you will ever get to goal. I really hope there is a different story tomorrow.

Keep your eye on the big picture. You are doing great!

I was sleeved 8/20/12 (10 weeks ago) and I have lost 83lbs. Still need to lose another 115lbs and I am damn determined to do it. You keep your chin up, work hard and good things will come your way.

10.5 months and somewhere between 140 and 145. I can't remember what my ticker says. Almost everyone second guesses and thinks they'll stop losing after a few month but if *I* can lose 140 pounds with my noncompliant ass, then you can lose what you need to.

You can do this - your sleeve is working (you have 58 lbs evidence!)  I have (to this point - I'm not done yet) just short of 150 lbs.  My personal goal is to lose 200 lbs total - so I'm almost 3/4 of the way there at 16 months out.  It is slow going now, but I'm doing it.  If you think you can  -  you can.  If you think you can't  -  you won't...
