Loss

Hi all I am having my op in 10 days and was wondering how much people lost in their first month?? X

Everyone is so different & loses at different rates. Most people I've seen on here based on their signatures, lose anywhere from 10 - 30 lbs the first month depending on how much they have to lose & such. People who are more overweight generally lose more than those who have less to lose, but even that isn't always true. There are too many factors that go into each of us losing. It's important not to compare yourself to others & also to take measurements & not just weight. Sometimes the scale won't move, but the inches will. It's important to rejoice in your own journey and not focus on comparing to others though.

Personally, I lost 12.6 lbs in my 2-week pre-op diet and 18 lbs my first month after surgery. I'm 5'8.5" & started with about 130 lbs to lose. Again, we're all so different though that even if two people are the same height and weight, they'll lose at different rates.

I lost 14.2 during my 2 week preop diet. During my first month postop I lost 21.6. I'm five weeks out today and have lost a total of 40 pounds.

The loss of weight varies from one person to another. But don't be discouraged of youu think you haven't loss or loss enough weight fast enough. As weeks go on you will lose because your food consumption is much less and a

Shod be healthy.
