How much have you lost?



Recommended Posts

I think it's perfectly normal and very frustrating. You should be happy you lost the 2 pounds you did. Average weightloss is only 1-2 pounds a week anyway. Slow weightloss is healthier and there is less extra skin afterwards. I know it is upsetting but your body takes a while to get used to the band and your first month you might not lose as much b/c you are eating very few calories and your body goes into a starvation mode. Keep positive, I only lost 1lb a week for the 1st month. I am down 100lbs total now, 75 since surgery in september. Time flies you will get there in no time.

I am one pound away from 100 pounds lost!! WOOHOO!! I think that breaks down to about 5.2 pounds per month. OR 1.22 pounds per week. I'm happy with that. I don't have any skin "issues" and I feel fantastic! :)

All of you are doing so well! (Applause) Sadly, I only lost about 30lbs and I have gained that back..plus some. Starting today, I decided to get back on the pre-op diet. I don't have much of a restriction at all and only have about 4 or 5ccs. You guys are such an inspiration. Hopefully, I can get back on track.
