How is your weight loss going?

I will admit that I've been a little frustrated over the past two months when I didn't really see the scale moving as I had hoped.  I started out my day of surgery weighing 256 and I guess that I got a little carried away that I would see more come off initially than I have.  I guess if I have to pick, slowly, but surely is great.  I've had my period twice since the surgery and have had some ups and downs with getting in my protein and liquids, so I really have nothing to complain about.  There have been mini stalls, but whenever I ramp up the exercise or reexamine my protein and liquids, that seems to ease me out of it.

1st Month Loss = 20 lbs
2nd Month Loss = 12 lbs

I really hope to keep up with an 8-10 lbs loss per month as I am aiming to be close to my goal weight by my 40th birthday 1/1/2013. 

Here are my before and now photos ...

 

 I saw thos pics out on the VSG forum, You're looking great!!!

I think I expected more but I hope to see it quicken with my release for more exercise.

1st month= 17 lbs  & currently down 6 more. 

I have dropped sizes in clothes & can wear my belt again which make me happy. I also feel much better overall.

 WTG and Thanks!

I've noticed a HUGE weight loss the last two days right before my 2 month Surgiversary.  I don't really know what I did differently, but I'm taking it!

 First month I lost 22lbs.

I'm in week 7 and currently at 8lbs lost.  I need to lose 3.3 lbs this week to get below 200, so that's my goal which would put me at 12.3 lbs lost for the month.  Overall I'm very happy.  I'm a "lightweight" so I know I won't lose as fast as some, but I'm sure I'm doing right by my protein and working out, so I'm not going to fret it.  I'd like to be to a normal BMI (149) by the end of Sep. and I should definitely be able to do that if I maintain or beat the 12  lbs a month.  

Awesome job!

You and I are somewhat in the same boat though you are a bit ahead.  I find that I am not losing as much as some, but still steady enough to keep me happy :)

 I'm about 30 lbs down in 2 months...... Could be more, but I'm VERY happy with that number!  I still need to learn to eat a little slower and chew longer ......
