Flower~I am losing an average of 2.16 pounds per week. My Dr. said that 1 to 2 pounds per week is idea... but some people just lose slower than others and I say as long as you are losing then your doing GREAT!!!!

I think mine is 1.5 per week...but I want to put your mind at ease...some weeks I lost nothing, maybe even two weeks in a row. Then, 3-4 pounds would "whoosh" away in a few day period. So, an average is just that, an average. With me, it is not usually steady, but lose, gain a little, then lose a lot, gain a little, hold steady, lose, etc. I track my weight loss on fitday.com, and it is interesting to check out the little graph for different periods, like a week, 2 weeks, a month, 2 months, and so on.

Hope that helps a little...don't sweat it. Cindy

I've been losing an average of 1.5 - 2.0 lbs/week. Some weeks more, some weeks less, some weeks NONE (think this is gonna be one of those weeks) lol, but you get used to it. Everyone will lose at a different rate. You're doing just fine

I guess my average is 2.08 a week (I used a calculator)

2 a week is fantastic. Thats 104 lbs a year folks, I'd take that in a heart beat.

I really can't comment on the losing end b/c I just am under 4 weeks out. I'll let you know in January / February.

it didnt quite happen that way, but I DO want to lose the 100 pounds in one year .. I have till mid FEB. ...

good luck to you

Flower,

I've been loosing about 3 pounds a week on average but some weeks are better than others. When I hit a plateau, I go back to the liquid diet for a dayand that seems to jump start me again.

Flower, you know you've seen it said before, but I'll say it again. Average means average over time. You can't expect to see the same amount drop off, week after week, week after week. It just doesn't work like that.

Normal people lose weights in fits and starts. So wait three months, then look back and divide your total weight lost in that time by 12 weeks. THAT'S how you calculate what your average weight loss was for that time. Stick with it, and you'll do great!

I don't know what my average has been since June but I will loss anywhere from a 1/2 pound to 6 pounds each week. So weeks I stay the same. This week is a good week this morning I am 4 pounds down since last monday...so I just take what I can get and try to watch what I eat.

Mine is about 1.6 lbs. I might try the liquid diet to jump start my weigh loss. I am very pleased with my loss. Some weeks it is nothing. If I don't lose another pound I am very pleased with my band.

my AVERGAGE is 1.2 lbs per week BUT that is not how my loss has happened.

I lost the most weight in the beginning and the rest has been an up and down struggle, plateaus, small gains and then losses.

I am up 4.5 lbs from my lowest and not happy!!
