Pounds lost.

Am new having surgery RNY tomorrow. Is it proper to discuss how much weight you have lost on this forum? Doesn't seem like folks talk about it. Any body want to give me a guesstimate about what I might be looking to lose in the first 8 weeks?

I don't think it's easy to guess how much you will lose

I've heard everyone is different. Congrats on your surgery tomorrow how exciting!

Every single one of us is different and there is no way to answer this question.

Each one of us has a different metabolism.

It depends on how active you are after surgery.

How well you follow your surgeons and nutritionist guidelines.

I also depends on how much you have to loose.

A lot of variables.

I will say good luck to you tomorrow and keep us updated on how you are progressing.

As others have already mentioned, each of us is different and will lose at a different pace.

I've read posts about people having lost close to 60 pounds in the first two months. I've also met others in my support group who were more in the 15-20 range. I was somewhere in the middle having lost around 40.

I always look at people's tickers or just at the tiny bit of profile info to the left of a persons posts. It usually says.
