it'sonlythefirststep 141 Posted September 5, 2018 My weight loss has slowed down to 2-3 lbs a week now. I have not started a weight lifting/cardio workout yet. Should of done that in the beginning because of the loose skin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

laurileet 86 Posted September 10, 2018 i'm 5'0" my highest weight before sleeve was 200lbs. since May 29th I've lost 20 lbs. so i'm down a total of 40. hoping to lose at least another 40 over the next 8-12 months. At first I was loosing a lb a week, now down to 1 lb every 2 weeks. The slow down is a bummer, but i'm still pleased to be losing and not gaining. AND exercising gets easier with each lb lost. I love that! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

it'sonlythefirststep 141 Posted September 10, 2018 (edited) Nice job. I am 5’2” started out at 260lbs down 100lbs 6 months for surgery. Doc says I can get down to 130-135lbs that seems really skinny to me. Edited September 10, 2018 by it'sonlythefirststep Start weight was wrong Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mrsplace 4 Posted September 10, 2018 I’m 5’ 2, I had a band to sleeve revision. My weight on the day of my sleeve surgery was 174. I am currently at 162.6... and have been for 2 weeks, this is the lowest I have ever gotten even with the band. It is slow going, hopefully I will start dropping again.
