Check out this very realistic average wt loss calculator in the link.
I so wish I'd seen it prior to surgery. I started at 335. This calculator puts my expected weight at a realistic 210. I was within 8 lbs of my expected weight loss! Had I known that I probably would have hung in there and been happy with my results.
The program I was in said I should be 190 or less, and when I bottomed out and nothing moved for months it felt/was an impossible goal; and made me feel like an utter failure so I gave up and it was part of why I gained weight back.
I think people lose a bit more and less and it depends a lot on activity, but still...I'm in tears here for the lost chance at being happy with myself back then.
Keep it real, folks, and promise to love yourself whatever the number on the scale says!
your results may vary since people can't just let me post without harping on me... no wonder I left here for years.
I'm gone again, permanently. Bye.
