75 lbs. But a lot depends on where you start.

I totally agree with catwoman7. You can't really compare your results to others because there are so many factors (starting weight, metabolism, exercise ability, medical conditions etc) This is a journey. Keep the faith!

I lost 112.4 lbs. from the day of surgery to the 6 month point. My loss is a bit on the high side according to my surgeon. I think that it may be because I am a vegetarian, I worked out daily and I kept my calories between 400-800 a day. I also faithfully tracked all my food and daily weigh in's on MyFitnessPal.

Just updated my weight loss to date, etc and realized my BMI is now 30!!!! Yahoo! From HW at my first visit to today, it's a total of 102 ish pounds. I won't officially count 100 lost for another 8 lbs though- surgery date weight. But damn, I'm close! 40 to go!

Depends on which six months you'd like to know about:

In the first 6 months from pre-op diet starting on 2/9/16 until 8/9/16 I lost 137lbs.

In the 5.5 months since my RNY (3/21) I'm down 105lbs.

Edited to share the total: I'm almost exactly 7 months out from my starting weight of 333 and I've lost a total of 152lbs.

In 7 days I'll be at 6 months since my surgery. I was 243 day of surgery and 164 today so 79lbs. I started at 261 in January pre-op so I've lost a total of 97lbs!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
