Almost 10 weeks out - how much have you all lost?
I usually just lurk, but today I must rant! Monday will be ten weeks for me and I've lost 40 pounds. I feel like everyone on here is losing a lot faster than me! I'm getting very frustrated reading how excited everyone is to be in onederland - I want to be in onderland! After the initial 2 week drop, I've only been losing 1 to 2 pounds per week, or gaining! I drink tons of water and get all my protein in - is anyone else such a slow loser like me?? (if you knew me, you could take that last line many different ways )
I'm 11 weeks out and I've lost 50lbs so far. I thought I was a slow loser too, but maybe we're right on track. Monday morning I was 258 then today I'm back up to 260. At first I was losing a pound a day, now it's more like 1-3 pounds a week. I guess it's better than losing nothing. I think we're all right on track. Hang in there, we're going to do this!
Different people lose in different ways and started at diferent weights. Don't worry.....I started at 325....I will not be in onderland for a LONG time. Those in onderland were in mid 200's to start. even those in onderland are losing at about the same rate....they just started lighter. I am almost 10 weeks and holding at 43 lbs. Though I sometimes feel discouraged then I realize....when in my life have I for 10 weeks lost 2 lbs a week consistently no matter what and it just continues. Out of curiosity what was your starting weight?

I started at 292, today I was 241, but Monday is my official weigh day because my surgery was on Monday. I know everyone says to throw the scale away, but there's no way I can do that - I'm an addict! I can't tell much difference in my clothes yet, so the scale is my way to gage my progress. Your surgery was the day after mine, so I'm right on the same track that you are.
