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!

      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.
