One week post surgery

Thank you. I have struggled to lose just over a stone which has been a slow ( very slow) two pounds off one pound on lengthy process over more than a year. I had my first hip replaced last week. I know my recovery would have been worse had I not lost the weight. It is a drop in the ocean but .. every little helps. Onward and upward. Will do better.

I understand. I have a sore hip due to permanently torn tendon and can’t do masses of exercise. It has taken me nearly two years to lose 10 lbs. I am top heavy and that is hard to lose.

Losing my husband recently has made my eating up and down and progress like yours up and down but as long as we are aware and keep an eye on it at least we are lighter than we used to be

Hello Beaumeister,

I hope you are recovering well from your hip operation. I am sure things seem a bit slow right now, but you will be back to normal soon and hopefully no more pain. Of course the weight loss before the op will have helped no end with your recovery. Weight loss can be very frustrating when it comes off and goes back on, I'm good at that:)

Hope you are making a good, steady recovery Baumeister :)

I'm sure that weight loss has helped, and no reason you can't continue whatever you were doing to lose it :)
