Major slow in weight loss?

Hello everyone! I had surgery on 11-15-05 I lost 115 pounds YEAH!!! This month I only lost 3 little pounds! Has everyone else slowed down that much? I still have 30 to go. Last month I lost 10 pounds I am not doing anything differently. I get on the scale every few days to see disappointment. I guess my honeymoon is over Thanks for listening! ANgel

Yep, I've slowed down some too... I've lost about 7 lbs this time round..... that's really down from the 37 I lost the first month! But as long as it's still going down, I'm not going to worry! I've upped my water and my exercise, and oddly enough my caloric intake and I really lost the inches this month! So I must still be doing something right! Oh yeah, I still have about 70 lbs to go until I'm happy.... Karen 356/248/???

Angel; Hey surgery sister! From 5/15-6/15, I lost 6, from 6/15-today, I've lost 4 (3 of which were since Sunday this week). I'm happy the scale is still going down. I know I've been struggling with getting enough water lately, so that's part of my problem. Stick with the basics though and we will be successful. I've got another 26 lbs. to goal. I know I'll get there in the Lords time. Blessings, Jennifer 253 / 163 / 137

Yes, absolutely slow! After double digit losses through 6 months, I'm down to single digits per month. I'm trying to stay positive - it still is a loss and not a zero loss plateau (YET). And they say you still lose inches while the body is rearranging itself during the slow down. I was still hoping for a few more months of 10-12 lb/month. I think now is when exercise becomes more important. I haven't been very consistent in that area. Hopefully that will keep me toward goal - it is close enough now to seem achievable, but still a way to go. Kathy

Hang in there Angel. There are some weeks that I lose 6 pounds (its getting rare these days), and there are weeks when I only lose a pound or two. As long as I'm losing I will be ok. I' just don't want to see any gains. I have 47 pounds left to lose. Take care. God bless you, Annette

Hi Angel, I think I lose differently than most. I will go 3-4 weeks in a stall, then all of a sudden in a week or two I will lose between 6-10 pounds. That is how it has been from the beginning. I still have lost 81 pounds, and from a size 22 pants now to a 12 and will be in a 10 very soon. I will take whatever my body will give me and loving every bit of it. I have 26-46 to go. I think you are probably also in a stall, just go back to the basics as everyone says and get your vities and protein and water in and exercise, and watch your portions. Best of luck to ya, you can do it. Shannon Arnold 257/176/130???

Angel I had my surgery Nov 29 2005 I have slow down I have lost 84 # My husband is really please the way I look and feel. I have not lost weight for a least three weeks.I am now considered over wieght. That mean a great deal to me. You will continue to lose Just try to not get on the sclaes as much. God Bless Barb

I had surgery on 11/18/05 and I'm losing about 3-5lbs a month. I'm not sure if that's good bad or whatever...I've learned not to let the numbers get to me. I eat well and workout in some way 6 times a week. I see and feel my body changing alot still....even if the numbers aren't moving as fast as they were....and I think that matters more. You have come a long way!!!!! And the fact that you aren't doing anything differently could be why you aren't losing the way you'd like (even thoughI think it's great ). You body get's use to routine and adapts. Change things up! Exercise different or try eating different foods Listen to your body, not the scale ;) Keep up the great work! You have lots to be proud of!!!!! Aim 240/154/135
