depressed

I saw my Dr last week for my 6 month follow-up. I have only lost 4 pounds in the last 3 months for a total of 45 pounds. The Dr said I could go on a diet. What!!! I had 95% of my stomache removed. I exercise at least 3 times a week. My husband is gone all the time and I have 3 kids. I am doing the best I can. I go to support meetings 1x a week. I dont get it. I have another appointment with the NUT next week for some ideas. All of my blood work is perfect. Anyone have the same issues? I am sick of people saying that they have "only" lost 85 pounds etc... I am so discouraged. I feel like a failure. HELP!

Are you getting enough water and protein in???? I know when I'm not losing any weight and I up those the weight then starts to come off again. Laura

hang in there.... it has only been six mo. for me too ( on the 18th.) I have only lost 90.6 since surgery..... we all drop it at diff. rates... you are doing good.... look at the over all weight loss not just the 3 mo. I agree with the water water water.... sometimes I feel like I should be a fish I drink so much of it... but if I don't get enough the scale will not move down ( it goes up) and I scream at myself..... hang in there you can do it.... if you ever need to chat. drop me a line.... jamie
