deana_m20 17 Posted February 1, 2016 I'm down 18 pounds 1 week post op from rny!!! I knew it would come off fast but I did not expect to lose 18 in the first week!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Babbs 14,681 Posted February 1, 2016 That's AMAZING! Not to be a downer, but don't expect that rate of loss always. Here is how it will go for you in general: After your amazing, large losses, expect a stall in the next few weeks. Don't freak out. Your body is just needing to adjust things and take a break. Once the stall is over, your losses should be at a more 'normal' rate of 2-5 pounds a week, depending on how much more weight you have to lose. Good luck and good job on your amazing first week loss!

jj7481 363 Posted February 1, 2016 Outstanding! When things slow down to a normal pace (or stall) just stick to your diet plan and portions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
