Bragging Rights
I'm sooooooooooo depressed over my weight loss or lack of. I left the hospital on July 30th at 356 and today I've lost 57 lbs. I'm not exercising regularly, walk when I can. Very careful about what I eat..It's so hard to see so many people with 80 to 100# losses. I'm tickled for them, but just getting very depressed that I'm not progressing like I thought I would. Hair loss is so bad that my scalp is majorly showing. I'm doing whey protein every morning and evening and even bought some nasty GNC liquid protein.
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I know how you feel. At my four month mark, I was down exactly 57 pounds. It's extremely frustrating, especially when you start out over 350lbs. You may be a slow loser, but you might be lucky and wind up being a steady loser. That's what I'm hoping for. From what I understand, Dame Tooter was a slow loser (about 50lbs in three months, I believe she said), and went on to lose 210lbs by the end of her journey. The only thing I can say is to hang in there...but there are days when my own grip isn't very strong. Remember that you are NOT alone...there are other slow losers out there...
