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?

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!

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.

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!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
