You're doing extremely well...it took me 11 months (nearly 1 year) to lose 75 pounds.

To the original poster: there is no set rate of monthly weight loss. Some people lose significantly faster than others. Generally, the super morbidly obese (BMI 50+) lose more rapidly.

Also, men and younger people are generally faster losers than everyone else.

Exactly what they said! You don't want to set yourself up based on someone else's loss. If you're concerned on the rate of your loss talk to your surgeon. I have lost 100lbs since my sleeve in October 2016. I am 32 years old at 5'3 and my starting weight was 257.

We are all so different... Try not to compare yourself to others. I was heartbroken the first two weeks I did not lose an ounce, in fact, Fluid and swelling showed me gaining 4 pounds! The next seven days I lost 16 pounds! Think of your journey asas a trail that no one else has ever gone down... your path is unique like you!

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