My 32 Week / Monthly Weight Loss Chart



Recommended Posts

I know that when I was researching this surgery and this sight, I wanted to get an idea of the type of weight loss I could expect. I learned that EVERYONE is different and that EVERYONE loses at a diffrent rate--some faster, some slower. However, I wanted to share this with those who want to have some idea of the type of weight loss that can occur with the sleeve.

I was sleeved on a Tuesday, so I weighed myseslf every Tuesday; those are reflected in the weekly weigh-in's. I was sleeved on the 18th, so the monthly weigh-in's reflect my weight on the 18th of each month.

Thanks for sharing your chart!

I think sometimes we think that the weight loss we saw in the first few weeks will be sustained - it won't. This is a great representation.

Congrats on your success!

Thanks for posting this...I will start a weekly chart as we'll to see my progress in black and white. I am also weighing myself everyday which I want to do once a week now. I had a slow down and it was getting me very discouraged. I am 7 weeks out and I eating 65 grams of Protein and 800 calories per day.. I hit my second stall. I am drinking enough Water. It is cold and drinking water does not appeal to me. Anyhow thanks.

There are several weeks throughout my weightloss that show no weightloss and even some gain. Stalls are MOST LIKELY GOING to HAPPEN due to a variety of reasons: water retention, lack of bowel movement, your body retaining calories because it is in starvation mode (meaning you need to eat more calories), etc. However, I like keeping track because it shows me the BIG PICTURE, which we cannot see on a day-to-day basis.

You seem to be doing well and your caloreis are excellent for 7 weeks out. I wish you--and everyone here--the best of luck!

I'm glad Gettingsexyback! LOVE your sign-in name by-the-way, You know part of our human nature is to have the need to be validated, and finding others with similar experinces is definitely validation that your progress is okay/normal/(even) great. You look like you are doing very well so far; honing in on that sexiness!!!

      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.
