kimmy215 0 Posted October 29, 2005 Hi! I have been checking out the info. on this site and have found it very inspirational. I am scheduled for the lap band 1/3/06. Can't wait!!!!! How much weight do you generally lose each month? Does your starting weight make a difference in how fast you lose? In other words, is it true that the smaller you are, the slower you will lose? Thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JAYGERL05 0 Posted October 29, 2005 I have lost 23 pounds in 7 weeks. I am a size 18 looking to be a size 10 or 12. I have not had a fill yet but will the 2week of November and I am hoping the pounds will come off some more. Good Luck and keep us posted Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alexandra 55 Posted October 29, 2005 I'm sure that in general it's true that the more one has to lose the faster it comes off. You don't hear of people who only have 70 or so pounds to take off losing 30 in the first month, but people who have 150 or more may indeed lose that quickly in short bursts. But that's just nature at work, and perfectly understandable. As for how much weight "we" lose each month, that's a function of too many variables to say. The desired rate of loss is 4-10 lbs a month. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
