Hi there!
I wanted to also bring atttention to
the fact that at least NOW you are consistently
LOSING weight! I am slo now losing 2 pounds a week…
and I am thrilled!!!!! It is better than I was doing
before… and at least NOW I know that it will keep coming
OFF!! Hang in there… follow your doctors orders…
and most of all look at the BRIGHT side… that it is
coming OFF!

Congrats!
Cindy

Dear Worried, not everyone is the same. I was
concerned that I wasnt losing fast enough but here is what
you have to consider. You have lost an average of 7
1/2 pounds a week. As long as your watching your
eating, exercising and drinking your fluids, then dont
worry. Im now losing at 2 pounds a week after 8 weeks.
It is still better then I ever could have done on my
own without surgery. Think positive, any weight loss
is a good loss.

SLOWLEY???? You call that slow! HA! LOL
That
averages out to more than 7 lbs a WEEK!!!!
I am 8 wks
post op and have only lost 36 lbs!!!! So…it all
depends on your starting weight. The heavier you are the
more you will lose at first. I started at 261 and am
now 225.

Hang in there
and stay encouraged! Don’t worry…Be
Happy!
