hw much to u lose ur first month

[HatheryOnHerWay 603]

I'm five weeks post op and I lost twenty-five pounds the first few weeks. However, the scale has not moved in two weeks and I'm getting worried!

I'm in the same boat! We just gotta stick it out, and the weight will come off

I am exactly 4 weeks post op and I've lost 10 % of my weight as my doctor said I would in the first month; I've lost a total of 29 pounds!!!

Is everyone weighing themselves daily? Seems a bit obsessive I'm 5 days post op and feel no need to weigh myself Will let the nurse weigh me at my first post-op visit 6-26. My responsibility as I see it is to follow my Dr andNut instructions the weight loss will follow. Some of you sound tormented by the scale. Just an observation

I weigh myself once per week...I can't wait for every drs appt because I just had my 2 week and then I wont have another one til the 2 month, 6 month and 1 year.

I've never heard that 10% thing before, but that seems pretty accurate!

At 12 days out I lost 20lbs. Haven't weighed in since then. Everyone loses different and no answer is "normal"

I lost about 20 lbs in the first 2 weeks. Trying not to get on the scale is hard. I was low BMI and have already lost 10% of my body weight! Very proud of myself.

I lost 15 lbs the first month. Almost 8 weeks out and I'm down about 27lbs total now.

I'm five days out and lost about 20lbs since Monday (down from 269 day of surgery to 247 this morning). I started with a low BMI 37.5. I did the surgery to lose type 2 diabetes... So far I'm off the insulin pump and on just metformin. I won't care about the scale as long as the diabetes keeps moving in the right direction

Good luck all!
