PoohSoup0803 45 Posted January 6, 2013 Hello all! I know everyone is different, but I'm just trying to find what an average weight loss is for the first month post-op. If you could post how much you had lost exactly 1 month from your surgery I would appreciate it. I am 4 weeks post-op tomorrow & want to know how I measure up. Thanks!

thinoneday 445 Posted January 6, 2013 In my first 2 weeks I lost 25 lbs, then at my next doctors appt which was at 6 weeks I had lost 53 lbs. In my first year i lost 150 lbs. But this isn't what everyone will lose. I had A LOT to loose, and my BMI was 44. . people with lots to lose, drop weight fast. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PoohSoup0803 45 Posted January 6, 2013 My BMI was 39 at the time of surgery.. I have lost 17lbs. I've been at the same weight for 9 days. Tomorrow is 4 weeks for me & I can't help feeling I should have lost more :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
katsmeow 70 Posted January 7, 2013 Your in a stall. We all hit them. Adding more food. Make sure your drinking enough and are getting your Protein. It will restart your losing again. I know it's frustrating. Mine lasted about 2 and a half weeks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jennifer575 344 Posted January 7, 2013 Well I am only 11 days post op and have lost 23 lbs. I am not sure if this is too fast or not, I have my follow up appointment on Tuesday so I guess I wil find out then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lucky8mb1 167 Posted January 7, 2013 If I remember, you lost a whole bunch up front. You're body is just catching up now. I was sleeved the same day as you, and according to my unofficial weigh in this morning I'm down 16lbs from my surgery weight. 32lbs including pre-op diet. I will officially log my weight tomorrow morning. As you can see, we're pretty close to each other. I had my first follow up last week and my surgeon said I'm exactly where I should be, so don't get too down on yourself. I was kind of hoping I had lost more too, but I'm trying to think of this as a marathon and not a sprint. I know it will come off - it has to considering the amount of calories I net in a day.
