Is it enough?

I was sleeved on feb 11 and so far I have lost 21 lbs. I am 5'6 and weighed 205 lbs when I went in for surgery. Does that sound like decent weight loss? I feel like I should be losing more and it's coming off slow.

I also had surgery on Feb 11. I was 184. As of last week I was 166, 18 lbs lost. It is slow but it is steady. I think when you dont have as much to lose it takes longer.

At 6 weeks post op I had lost about that much weight. I am 3 months out and have lost 41lbs. The lower the BMI, the slower the weight loss, I've also heard. Slow and steady wins the race, right?

Youre ok...we got this!

I was also sleeved on 02/11/13. I've lost 18 pounds since surgery. I think we must be doing something right since it's about the same for all of us. Also, my clothes are much looser. I haven't been able to go to a smaller size yet because of my thunder thighs, but I sure can tell the difference in how my clothes fit. =) I was 262 at weigh in on the day of surgery.

I feel better now. the point is we are losing. I could not have done it with the sleeve.
