9 month check-up!!

Hi Tylonne, Thanks so much! Wow that is a shame that you have not had any support!? How have you done? Did you use protein supplements? Have you lost what you feel you should have lost to this point? Sorry for all the questions, I'm just concerned. Hope you are doing well!!! Please let me know how your doing. Take Care and God Bless You, Debi

Hi Debi, Thanks for you concern. At this point I have no support what so ever, I am doing this all on my own. Yes I have been doing protein supplements, in-fact i'm getting in as much protein as I can, and drinking plenty of water. I have been reading everyones progress (WTG to everyone). However, looking at my own progress, I have reached my realistic goal of 75 but now am looking at where I should be at 10 months post op. i must say it does not look very well I went from loosing 20 pounds a month for the first 3 months, to 10 pounds the next month, and then finally an almost 6 months of not loosing anything at all. My starting weight was 326 and now i'm at 246 (total 70 pounds). It really concerns me seeing how much everyone has lost in the first 6 months, that I have not lost as much. Am I starting to not be realistic? If so let me know. I could understand not loosing anything, if I were not eating properly, not drinking enough fluids, and not exercising but even if I were not exercising, there have been people on here that did not exercising at all and still lost over 100 pounds withing the first few months. I however have problems with my hips that prevents me from exercising, the pain in my hips is sometimes unbearable but I still exercise, with no results. If it sounds like i'm complaining/whining to much here sorry but i'm frustrated and need to get all of this out of me before it drives me insane. Again thank you for your concern. Ty
