Average loss per week after surgery?

[loridee24 13]

For those of you who had band to bypass and had a lot to lose, what was your average weekly weight loss in the first 6 months? Year? I know every person is different and it depends on what you do with the tool, I'm just trying to understand what's possible. For reference, I'm female and 41 and have 165 to lose to be at my goal weight (I need to lose 25 pre-surgery).

Thanks for sharing!

I'm 24 weeks and 5 days post-op. I will be 6 months on the 25th. I've lost 75 pounds and have averaged 3.125 pounds a week so far. I am, however, losing very slow now due to eating more. I had the vsg surgery. Good luck to you!

I am 7 weeks and 1 day post-op. I've lost 48 lbs and average about 6.8lbs a week. I have also been told tall men lose the weight faster. I had a revision from RNY to DS.

Granted you need to be mindful that your situation will be completely different from ours. You will lose the weight at what your body is set to do. Just focus on learning to eat again and get those Proteins.

Hope this helps.
