Yes, I feel your frustration. I have been gaining and losing the same 3-4 pounds for a month. I have lost 74 pounds since November, doctor says my goal is another 30, I would be happy with 20. Right now I am trying doubling up on my activity, cutting the snacks and pumping the water. I am still seeing progress in inches (my clothing fitting better). I am trying desperately to stay away from the scale and trying to be happy with what I have achieved so far. Good luck.

Hi, I have lost 90 since November and keep loosing and gaining the same 5lbs for the past 2 months. Nothing I do seems to help and I am getting anxious and frustrated at this point. I wish I knew the answer. Good Luck.

Hi Everyone, I know it has been a long time since last I posted, but I have been amazingly busy. I have lost 115 pounds since Nov, but in the past two weeks, my weight has slowly crept up. I am now 9 pounds heavier than I was. Is anyone else going through this? It scares me to death. HELP!!! Let me know if you are going through this too!

Topic: slow loss
Anyone out there only lost 50 pounds in 7 months? I don't care how long it takes just so I know I'll make it to 100 pounds. Anyone out there only lose 50 pounds at 7 months post op and make it to 100 eventually?

Topic: RE: Helloooo Out There!!!
Well, congrats to all the Nov. bypasses. After reading the postings, I believe, I have lost the least. I don't know everybody's starting weight or heights. I was 5'9" 272 and now I am 210-62 pound weight loss. Is any one out there near my ht. and weight and at 7 months now? I feel great and I am a size 14/16. My doctor thinks I'll reach 180, but my weight loss is about one pund per week average or 4 pounds per month the last three months! I have gone fait5hfully to the Slender Lady (Like Curves) for three years. I am very active. JM
