Lea Anne 17 Posted July 23, 2012 @twic41 i believe that there isn't a "normal" and that everyone's body is different. that said, maybe you can go back to Protein shakes for a couple days to kind of kick-start the loss again. i'd definately schedule an appointment with the surgeon (not just the assistant) to discuss your options and make sure everything is okay. 1 JD7176 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bd0982 13 Posted July 23, 2012 I am about 8 weeks out and only down 36lbs. I feel like its going very slow. Is this normal? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SleeveNoob 95 Posted July 23, 2012 Each person is different. I'm 4 Weeks out and only down 22lbs. They say low bmi'ers lose slower. I have a lower bmi so I expected it. The slower you lose the less loose skin you will have that's how I stop myself from getting depressed Sent from my DROID BIONIC using VST 1 Celaine47 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What was your starting weight? I was sleeved a day after you. I started at 258 and now I am 244. I've lost 14 lbs in two weeks. I think you are doing fantastic.
