Calling All April Loser

Thanks Linda for the post. I'm only 50lbs away from goal and it seem like I am never going to get there. I was hoping to lose at least 87lbs by my 6 month check up. It's true with me also. I need to stay away from the scale. That is my biggest downfall. Weighing myself at least 4 times a day since I had the surgery done. I just don't want to stay off the scale for a week or two and when I finally weight myself again I will only have lost 1 or 2 lbs. That would really send me into a extreme state of depression. Can't really tell if I am losing inches or not. My clothes are fitting the same to me. I'm going to stay strong for you and check back with you in about a month to give you an update on my progress.

I soooo feel your pain right now. I am gettling a little bummed out. I have been STUCK at this weight for 3 weeks now. The scale hasn't moved up or DOWN. I am not going to complain about losing 70 pounds but I would like to drop about 20 to 30 pounds more before I stop losing. This is my longest stahl since surgery. I have upped my protein and nothing so it must be the exercise thing. Anyway, I feel for you, I am one day behind you on the surgery date. I feel like it is too soon for this. Oh well such is life! Let me know when you start melting again and what it was that helped. Good luck Kristy 233/163/135

IM down from 259 at Drs office at preop ro 200.5 LBs now My journey started at 280 lbs. I lose about 1 to 2 lbs a week..i can say Im pleased with that. god bless Patty

hello, I had my surgery on the 25th of April my weight was 315 and prior to surgery I was 299. I presently weigh 236lbs. It is a struggle to find something you like, I have to admit I have not been behaving as well. Excercise is a number one problem with suffering from depression and fibromyalgia. I did go through a period where I wouldn't lose and even went up the scale a few pounds but I guess thats normal. Good luck on your continued journey. wls sista
