How much did you all lose during 1st month & 2nd month?

I know everyone is different, but I'm looking for some hope from your inspirational experiences:)

Well, a lot depends on where you start, how tall you are etc. I am 5'5", was 247, and lost 19 and 11 pounds in month one and two, and almost 10 preop

I'm 5'7" weighed 256 post op, lost 10 my first week & 4 lbs week 2. I'm in wk 3, doc said 6-12 week 1 is normal then 1-3 for the coming weeks. Good luck!!

I'm 5 ft 7 inches tall, and my high weight was 403

Day of surgery (8/8/15) 395 - down 8 pounds
Month one (9/8/15) 357 - lost 38 pounds, total 46 pounds
Month two (10/11/15) 340 - lost 17 pounds, total 63 pounds
Month three (11/8/15) 321 - lost 19 pounds, total 82 pounds
Month four (12/9/15) 304 - lost 17 pounds, total 99 pounds
Month five (1/13/16) 287 - lost 17 pounds, total 116 pounds
Today, one week shy of 6 months: 279 pounds - lost 8 pounds, total 124 pounds

So 38 the first month, then averaging 17 pounds each month for the next 4. Things are definitely slowing down now, but they're still going in the right direction, so I'm good with that.

Began the bariatric program in June 2015 at 478 lbs.

Surgery was on October 13, 2015. Was 422 lbs on date of surgery.

Weight this morning, January 30, 2016 was 342 lbs.

I'm a month and a half out and at present, I'm 27lbs lower than my day of surgery weight. 63lbs lower than my all time high of about 8 months ago.

So that's 312 at all time high, 276 at surgery, and 249 now. I'm 6'1" so I was pushing being a "low bmi" at the time of surgery.

@@wwboy Way to go! I'm 6'0 & was also considered low bmi at 36. That was a tough thing b/c I had to lose weight prior to surgery, but I couldn't lose too much to make my bmi go below 35 or my insurance wouldn't pay. My high was 268 and I'm 237 now at 3 weeks post-sleeve. I sure am looking forward to summer this year (& I never say that!). Feeling hopeful.

Things have picked up. Today I'm one day shy of 6 months, and I'm at 273 - 14 pounds for the month and a total of 130 down.

I'm good with that.
