Not losing!


Question
Hi I had my surgery 8/11/08. I am 5'4 and went in at 262 and am now 195. I do not seem to be losing much. Shouldn't I have lost more by now? I follow my doctors orders but seem to only loose about lbs a month now. In the beginning I lost about 10 lbs a month. A few of my friends think it is because my  doctor had me on solid foods too early(after about a week. Also does drinking affect weight loss? I wanted to have lost it all within a year as I was told but it doesn't seem like I will.( I've got about 1.5 mos. to go!) What can I do to loose that last 50!!

Answer
In order to answer your question, I need more information...

What type of bariatric surgery did you have?  Did you have Gastric Bypass or did you have Lap Band surgery?  Weight loss differs dramatically depending upon which of these you had.

Also, when you say "drinking", do you mean alcohol or drinking liquids with meals?  My answer will depend upon what you mean.

The sooner you provide the answers to my questions, the sooner I can provide the answer to yours.

Thanks,
Steve
