TOO Fast, too soon?

[Boo Boo Kitty 3]

Hello all,

I am wondering now if I am loosing too much too fast. I have had surgery on August 1st. Since my pre op I have lost a total of 74 pounds. I averaged it out to be about 4.65 pounds a week. Is that too much? Anyone else have a weight loss like this?

Thanks

im hoping for about 3lb a week loss if i stick to healthy diet

if you feel good i wouldnt worry ,just get loads of excercise to keep loss going and pull everything back into place i think its fabulous :clap2:

I wouldn't worry too much about the rapid weight loss. If you are getting in your Protein that is all that matters. On the flip side, you may find that you will need plastic surgery. I've heard on these forums that when you lose faster the skins seems to weap more. Good luck on your continued success.

God Bless with that fast weight loss!!! If you dr. is monitoring you-GREAT! Just remember to take supplements and exercise as it is hard to lose fast and have hanging skin. Keep is all posted-can you give us an idea of your daily menus?

Hi I wondered how many fills you have had since August? Monica

I have had 3 fills and 1 unfill since August.

LOL...guys now I feel like a ninny. I am just worried that I am not eating right.

Here is a typical day's meal:

Pre-Breakfast (around 5 am) A cappacino or latte with whip cream.

My demon that I can not shake.

Breakfast 10 or so... one egg, 1 half piece of toast, 1 slice bacon

lunch... 1 cup chili or some other Soup OR 1/4 cup chicken salad and crackers

dinner... I usually eat whatever I made the family.

I also PB the foam after every meal. Dr has put me on a decongestant, which helps sometimes. But whatever...

I am just worried that I am not doing this right. The reason I did the band is so I did not have to tell everyone I had WLS. Not working....lol...

I think you'll be fine and it's just a wonderful problems too have. I started off the same way and if you keep your fills right it will keep up. I had lost 50 pounds in 3 months and then got my fill too tight and it stopped for almost a month. Then, I got a slight unfill Thanksgiving weekend and I've lost 14 pounds in the past month since. It will do great if your fill is right but even too tight can slow it down so good luck and happy losing.
