Actual rate of weight loss - 12 weeks out



Recommended Posts

I know this is always a point of interest for people, so here is a little more data to add to your collection. This is my actual weekly weight loss with an average of 3.3 lbs per week since the day of surgery:

Highest weight (July 2013) = 283

1st day Pre-op Diet (Jan 22nd 2014) = 270 (-13)

Day of Surgery (Feb 4th 2014) = 254.5 (-15.5)

Post Op Data by Week:

Week 1 = 244.4 (-10.1)

Week 2 = 244.4 (-0.0)

Week 3 = 244.4 (-0.0)

Week 4 = 241.2 (-3.2) MO 1 = -13.3

Week 5 = 238.2 (-3.0)

Week 6 = 235.0 (-3.2)

Week 7 = 232.2 (-2.8)

Week 8 = 229.9 (-2.3) MO 2 = -11.3

Week 9 = 227.2 (-2.7)

Week 10 = 221.8 (-5.4)

Week 11 = 220.2 (-1.6)

Week 12 = 214.8 (-5.4) MO 3 = -15.1

So there you have it, it really does add up over time, even with some frustrating stall weeks. Keep on plugging, everybody!

12 weeks for me this week, 40 # lost.

Started at 275, now 235. Somewhat slow, but steady, and that's fine by me - I know it's not coming back!

Thanks for sharing! I too lost 11lbs the first week then nothing in week 2. I was so bummed. I'm almost 3 weeks but trying to weigh only once a week. Congratulations on your progress!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
