So im six weeks post op..fown 21 lbs..lost 10 prior to surgery. ..surgery weight 229 current weight 208..average weight loss per week 3.5 ..now I am happy to have lost but I was under the impression that weight loss per week would be much more than that.I read some threads on here and I read about 30 to 40 lbs. Lost per month...wonder if im doing something wrong

Annav, you are doing FINE! Everyone's journey is different. As long as you're getting your Water and Protein and Vitamins you're good! I'm almost 5 months out, down 75#...that's an average of 4# a week.

What types of things are you eating

Like the pp said your doing great babes! I'll be 6 weeks out tomorrow and I know how frustrating it can be to not lose as much as you expected...but I've learned to take it one day at a time and appreciate every pound lost...it's a process that requires patience...so don't beat yourself up!

Morning 1 egg with 1/4 cup fruit

Protein shake snak

lunch 1/4 cottage cheese w/ 3whole wheat crackers

Protein snak

2oz fish or any protein

1 corn tortilla

1/4 cup veggie

Sample menu I was given...im on regular goods now but even on full liquids I lost ssme ..first two weeks after surgery I only lost about 7 lbs...has been slow since beginning. .just afraid that my weight loss will eventually be 1 lb a week..lol...

You are doing great! I have been at a stand still for a week now and it's horrible. I had my RNY on January 21, 2013 and to date have lost only 30 pounds. I like your menu tho. My doctor doesn't allow crackers, tortillas and such. (Oh how I miss tortillas. LOL) He also recommends for all meals to stay measured at 2 ounces. Keep up the great work! It will all be worth it.

Hum menu looks good. I would call the dietian. The first thing she will say is don't compare urself to others which is hard.

See that's why I am afraid to get off all Protein shakes and get on the scale. I hate that scale. It is not our friend!!!
