QUESTION!

I have had my band for about a month now. I know we all have different types of bodies and metabolisms, therefore we all have different outcomes. BUUUUUT, how long did it take some of you guys to see major pounds shed?

Well the average is 1-2 pounds a week so I think that's a reasonable expectation.

Otherwise, there's so many factors. Someone (like me) who starts off with over 200 pounds to lose is going to lose a lot faster in the beginning than someone who only has 80 pounds to lose. Also you have to take lifestyle, food choices, exercise, sex (men lose faster), and medical history into consideration.

With that said, I lost really fast at the beginning. My surgery was Jan. 6 2012 and my first fill was the end of February 2012. I had already lost 44 pounds by my first fill.

Now...it's slowed a lot but I've also lost a lot. I go for my monthly doctor's appointment tomorrow and have only lost 6 pounds since my appointment 4 weeks ago. (which, btw, I'm totally ok with that amount.)

As long as the scale is going down not up, I honestly don't think much else matters.

Results vary. You may be losing inches without visible clothing changes. Remember, some of our clothes stretched with us!
