Why do you feel that you are doing something wrong? You are doing GREAT!!!!! Pat yourself on the back and lighten up on yourself. You are an inspiration to us recently post-ops!!!! I will be SO happy if I lose that much in only 8 months. Be proud. I bet you feel, look and act like a new person. CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU!!!!!!

The only thing you are doing <i> wrong </i> is worrying about it...88 in 7 months is fantastic. Keep plodding along :>)

You are doing great and need to stop worrying. Why would you see anything wrong with that? When was the last time you lost 88 pounds in 7 months? That is a tremendous accomplishment!

whats wrong wiht oyu 88 pounds and "whats wring" coulkd you of lost that before wls?? do not compare your loss to anyone elses, they do not have your mind, body and head, so each one of us is different! you have done super well and after 88 pounds you can surely see it.

Sweetie, I know its hard to be happy with where you are when you see others losing faster than you. Keep in mind that you are doing much better than others. We are lose at different rates. I lost VERY quickly in the beginning (80-something pounds in four months) and have slacked off alot since. I too am at 7 months, but very happy with where I am. I could be better, but it could be worse. Please be patient. You will get there!! You are doing great- keep it up!
