anyone losing more inches then lbs
This post is just me ranting!!
Had my banding August 16th and lost 16 lbs with first two weeks and now its slowed down but I am losing inches, I know that I should be glad (which I am) that the inches are coming off but its just something about stepping on that scale and not seeing the numbers go down like I would like. I know this a slow process and I need to hang in there...has this happened to anyone else?
thanks for letting me rant :)

Yes...this is normal. Often our body is losing fat and inches before the weight loss shows up on the scale. Hang in there....my weight has been stable for 4 weeks, but I lost a full size in that time.

We've all been there. Don't worry, it's part of the natural process :D !!
Good Luck on your Journey !!

Ditto...my scale can stall for weeks but the inches keep coming off. Keep up the good work!
