    Default 6 week follow up appt and pounds vs. inches lost

    I am a slow loser ...I have lost more inches than pounds...I was wearing a 3x shirt and 24w(they fit very tight) pants and now.... I can wear size (get them on can't zip YET) 18 pants and 1x shirts even my bras I had to get 38 D instead of 44D
    ....but the scale is not showing drastic pounds being lost....

    Inches lost is still a wonderful thing too...I am happy with that....

    My 6 week follow up is coming( aug 14th) and I guess I feel like I will be scolded for not enough pounds lost...silly and irrational right?

    I really hope they do labs though...I really wanna know how I am doing with my vitamin intake and protein intake...I hope I am doing all the right things to stay healthy...I don't want any deficiencies!

    I like you are a slow loser everyone tell me I am losing a lot of weight but my scales says I am not, I know I have lost a lot of inches and I can tell that just don't get the fact that the pounds don't show it.
