How much weight did you lose in the first two weeks post-op?

[CocoCocoon 6]

I would really appreciate it if some of you ladies who started with a BMI around 40 could tell me how much weight you lost in the first two weeks post-op and also one month post-op. I'd love to hear the rest of the monthly progression as well if you'd care to share it.

Thanks so much!

My BMI was close to 40 and I gained about 6 lbs at the hospital which I lost plus nine more pounds in the first two weeks. This seems to less than some others. I lost 8 lbs on the preop diet the week before surgery so I think all my Water weight was gone. I hope this helps!

I think that you'll get a lot of good answers. My only caution from reading a LOT of posts here is that no two folks are the same. Please don't bank on any "expected" losses aside from the one sure fact -- follow your program and you will lose the weight, no matter how long it takes!

Okay, we'll, I miraculously dropped about 22 lbs in the first 2-3 weeks. As of yesterday, I am 11 weeks post op and am down 49.2 lbs.

had my 2 week followup today and I was down 15 pounds. The day I came home from the hospital, I was 10 lbs. heavier than they day I went in!

Lost 24 pounds first two weeks post op. I started out at 234 now 210 but I think I lost more this week. But on that note I can hardly eat anything or drink my shakes.< /p>

I was very lucky I lost 24lbs the first week and a half. Then I gained 2 lbs and stayed there for the remainder of the 2 weeks. I am 8 weeks post op and am down 40lbs. I followed the rules really close and some of it was a fluke as I didn't read the rules close enough. Good luck to you on your journey.
