What a person will lose is based on so many variables. Some people do low carb, high Protein during the pre-approval phase, so they already have a head start and lost their beginning Water weight. People with higher BMI's and more weight to lose and men will usually lose faster than women at first.

A lot of people lose weight steady and don't get the dreaded big stalls. A lot has to do with how much weight you have to lose.

Some people are built differently and are less "squishy" and have more muscle mass and tend to build muscle easily, I am one of those. Two people that weigh exactly the same, are the same height and eat the same thing, will not lose at the same rate because body types are different.

Many people gain weight after surgery due to the IV fluids, inflammation and swelling & gas. I had surgery at 229 and when I got home 6 days after surgery I was 235 and I had like 100 calories a day for 6 days lol.

The most important thing though is no matter what you weight, what body type you have, if you follow the rules and drink your Water and follow the nutritional plan, you will lose weight.

Best of luck to you.

29.2 pounds the fist month. But I started off with needing to lose 132 pounds as of surgery day. I also didn't weigh myself when I came home from the surgery because I didn't want to be discouraged if I had gained.
