meggs353 118 Posted July 10, 2015 I had surgery November 2014. I'm down 18 lbs, and counting. For the first few months after surgery I didn't lose (I gained back some of my pre-surgery loss too). I was very relieved to read on these boards that this is normal. It took me time to get my band adjusted, and once it was I started losing 0.5 lbs/week and I am thrilled (some weeks I lose 1.5 lbs, some weeks I gain 0.5 lbs, some weeks I stay the same but it averages to 0.5 down each week over time). I would love to lose faster but I eat so many foods I love (in small quantities) that I'd rather eat what I want and lose slow than try and be stricter and lose faster. My whole life I struggled to lose any weight, and even when I tried I often ended up gaining, so this consistent loss over time is wonderful. I hope this post helps people who are starting out or losing slow! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
