I’m a Slow Loser
I’m a slow loser and proud of it!
I’m down another 8 lbs for a total of 32 lbs lost. Bye! Bye! Never to be seen again! It has been about 24 weeks since my surgery. So that’s a 1.3 lb loss per week. That is a very healthy average. My Dr and the band manufacturers recommend losing 1-2 lbs a week.
Seeing many of my fellow August 07 bandsters lose 50-80 lbs sometimes makes me feel discouraged and it’s harder to post to my Aug. group. It seems silly even writing it now, but on those days that it gets me down it feels very real. So, I found a new area on my favorite message boards to post, because getting regular support is very important for this process. It’s called Slow Losers Unite It’s good to find others like me or that have been where I am. There is one member that has lost 150 lbs that had her surgery 1 year before mine. I am going to ask her for an interview and will post it here.
There are many good things about losing this weight slow, steady and healthy. It will be much less strain on my body and organs. I’m less likely to have hair loss or need plastic surgery. Best of all I’m more likely to keep the weight off long term. I’m happy to be a slow loser!
