1ST Month? How much did u lose?

[hopingtolose2013 81]

I'm asking because I'm 7 days out and have lost 13 lbs...I am trying to not be too excited! Is it possible to lose 30 the first month???? I know we r all different. Looking for your story!

I started at around 210-213 and am 5'6", 38 years old and female. I lost 20 pounds in a month and then hit a stall. Just working toward my goal though and not worrying too much about the short term.

I lost 35 pounds my first month, 40 if you count the weight I lost on my pre-op diet. But I think it depends on your starting weight too. It seems that the heavier you are, the faster it comes off at first. I am 39, my highest weight was 366. I lost 6 pounds prior to my pre-op, then 15 on the pre-op diet, and 35 in the month after surgery. I think as long as the direction keeps going down, it doesn't matter how fast. I expect that the first month we will lose the most, then it will began to slow after that. After not losing weight for over 10 years, any movement in the right direction is fine with me!

I was 420 on surgery day then one month I was 383 so that's 37lbs. I'm 3 months out now and down to 323 so that's 97lbs in 3 months good luck to you

START WEIGHT: 467 <br />SURGERY WEIGHT/DATE: 420 / 4-10-13<br />NOW: 323 6-06<br />97 AFTER VGS 144 TOTAL

I'm 6'1, I started at 356 and lost 25 in the first month, 14 weeks out and I've lost 67 so far, so yeah, it's definitely possible. I think it all depends on your former life style, body and metabolism.

Hope for you the best and all the greatest success
