How Much Did You Lose 1 Month Post Op



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone, today is my 23rd birthday :) and it also marks 3 weeks out for me.. today i hit my first 20 lbs lost since surgery (not including pre-op) i was just wondering what everyone lost in their first month post op?? i still have a week left.. i was hoping to lose around 23-25 lbs total for month 1 i dont know if its doable or not considering i stalled for about 10 days.

I havent started exercising yet, my nurse practicioner told me i could do cardio but nothing else... did anyone else exercise in month 1? and if you did how much did u lose?

I have been walking everyday since surgery on Feb 14th I walk a min of 2 miles a day but generally 4 ( I have done 8 and will be doing 12 this Sat.) I have lost 15lbs from surgery date I try not to weigh everyday.

hi lovePink

The one thing we can all be sure of during our weight loss journey, is that we will lose weight differently.

some people will lose weight quicker than others (i.e. you men) some people will just have normal stalls, and others will lose at slow but steady rate. It will depend on your metabolism, excercise, and just stuff in general.

So trying to answer your question, I had lost 18 lbs after 3 weeks - which i was happy about. So moving right along, i think the weight you have lost is terrific, and once again, everyoe loses at their own pace - keep on keepon on.

continued best

Happy Birthday! I will be 4 weeks on Monday and have lost 16 pounds. I try to walk 2 miles a day but just started that this week. I did stall for a week and the scale finally moved 1 pound this morning :)

Happy Birthday! I'm one month and 4 days out and I've lost 30lbs since surgery. Just remember that everyone loses differently and experiences different things at different times. I never stalled, but that's not to say I won't, so my progress may slow. Hang in there, you're doing great!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
