Wheetsin 714 Posted April 11, 2012 I lost about 40 my first week, including a 2-day pre-op diet, but I'm high BMI and was still very dehydrated when weighed at my 1 week post-op. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BenisaMartim4 369 Posted April 11, 2012 I don't believe there is an average. It swings wildly from person to person. I gained weight while I was in the hospital. Then lost it, then gained it back and lost it again 3 more times ( while I was back and forth to the clinic having IVs.) I lost 36# during that first little bit, but it was the same 6-8# over and over. I thought it would never stop! Now at 8 weeks out, the scale has finally stayed in one direction for awhile. I am down 58# and people say I am ahead of the curve now. So I believe anything less than you went in is good. You just never know what hand you will be dealt. 1 HopeThruFaith reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
