How much have you lost in Month 1?...I just need to get a general indication



Recommended Posts

I know it depends significantly on starting weight, age, height, condition of recovery... and so much more!

But I would like to get a general idea of the average of where I fit in.

Thank you

Fyi: I get way too many negative comments on this forum...if your answer is not helpful please keep it to yourself.

45 days since Feb 10th surgery, down 40 lbs, eating an average of 880 to 950 calories a day

and walking or biking an average of 30 minutes a day. The weird part is that those aren't guesses,

those are pretty much on the money, I've been keeping track of everything, something I never would have done

before.

I am relatively fine...I have heard a lot of stories and in comparison I am pretty good :D

My main concern is Water intake...it is difficult getting in enough water...which is horrible when I began moving bec I always feel like drinking a gallon of Water :D but can only sip a little bit! What about u

Sorry about the negative comments you are receiving.

Unsure why that happens.

Anyway, I couldn't remember the weights my first month so I went and checked the weigh in history.....looks like I was 422 on day of surgery and 387 a month out.

First couple months were my best losing months for sure. Rate of loss slowed down afterwards.

My Water intake lately has not been so hot, I hope to get back on track I no how important water is! Sometimes it hurts when it settles in my tummy, I think its possible I drink to big of a drink instead of sip... ;)

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
