scv916 1 Posted October 30, 2013 Hi I am wondering the same thing. I had my sleeve done on October 21st. At my highest weight I was 210. (I am just over 5'1". Presurgery I was 197. The day after I was released from the hospital I was back up to 204 - from the IV fluids. Then the rapid weight loss started. This morning I weighed 190, and am losing almost 2 lb. per day! I am doing pretty well getting my Protein in, though I never thought I would be keeping a food journal to be sure I was consuming enough !! haha. I am wondering how fast is too fast a weight loss? Anyone know? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
clk 3,519 Posted October 30, 2013 Thank you for recognizing that we're all different! Don't let those differences sabotage the way you feel about your success. In three months I lost 44 pounds. Those were my three best months. It took me another EIGHT months to lose the next 44 pounds! I am 5'1" and my start weight was 242 pounds. I wouldn't fret about losing too quickly, as the body will slow or stall if things get too crazy. I also wouldn't worry about losing slowly, as frustrating as that might be. Some people lose 100 pounds in 9 months, and some people take 17 to lose 107, like me. Good luck, and congrats on that new sleeve! ~Cheri 1 JerseyGirl68 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RoxFC 175 Posted October 30, 2013 I was 272 and I was down to 218 last week on my 3 month anniversary. That's a total of 54 lbs lost...but, I had lost 8lbs the few days before surgery (264 lbs). So, technically, 46 lbs since surgery. I lost very rapidly in the beginning and I didn't stall until two months post-op. That stall lasted about 3 weeks. I am now losing about 2.5-3 lbs/week on average. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ashleyp24 46 Posted October 30, 2013 Thanks for this post. I was sleeved Oct.4 I'm 5'1 and was 224 day of surgery. Today I'm 199.6 a complete slow loser. I stalled for 3 weeks. I don't go over 800 calories a day. I'm so scared I won't reach my goal I have 98lbs to lose. Best if of luck to you. Our Stats are almost identical! I started at 222lbs, I am also 5'1 Im 11 weeks out to the day and Ive lost 39lbs so far, def a slower looser but I am ok with that as long as it continues to go down, plus eventhough we may not see the numbers go down on the scale right away you will feel it in your clothes!
