Hi everybody!
I have done the roux en Y on 12 November 2012 , I was 227 lb on the surgery day , I lost 11 lb in the first week after surgery , then 4.85 lb on the second week.
Then my weight loss started very slow as follows :
4 weeks from 26/11/12 up to 24/12/12 , I lost another 4.85 lb ,
then from 25/12/12 up till today ( almost 3 weeks ) , I lost another 3.8 lb.
Now I have a few of questions :
1- Do you consider this is a normal weight loss to lose average 1 lb weekly ?
2- Do you consider this as metabolic weight loss resistance ? where I have been on diet for more than 20 years lose and gain ( yoyo style ) ..
3- Should I follow a low calorie diet to achieve the weight loss faster ?
My surgeon used to tell me dont worry , you will make but slowly .
Is it any statistic about average weight loss after the Roux en y , that can tell me where I'm among these figures ?
