Discouraged with the weight loss
Sep 16, 2009
The scale is barley moving. I had surgery 8/18/09. I weighted in at 280lb on the day of surgery and weighted 270lb at my 2 week f/u. As of Monday 9/14 I am only 269lb. It has been the same weight for for 3 weeks. It is driving me crazy. I have looked at how much I eat and I eat between 600 and 900 calories a day.Not sure what is going on with my body. I am bound and determined that my body likes to be fat and is determined to stay fat as long as possible. I am getting discouraged about this. I figured I would of lost at least 20lbs by my 1 month on 9/18. No such luck. People at work keep stopping me at work and telling me I look great. My co workers and daughters are telling me that you can tell that I am losing weight around my mid section and my butt is getting smaller. I think that my body is just shifting around my fat. It is driving me nuts. I decided that I would only weight myself every Monday so I stop obsessing over this. I am disappointmed everyday. I am really trying to make sure that I eat right and excercise but when the scale isn't moving you don't feel like it is really worth the effort. I know over time that medically there is no way I can't lose weight with the limited amount of food intake. I do know that my fluide intake could be better.
Any way no other complaints at this point. My clothes are comfortable and I have a few more shirts I can get back into. That is a great feeling for sure!!!!!
