40 lbs in a month is A LOT for average WLS patients. Some people do it, but they're definitely outliers. You see that more often in people who start at sky high BMI's. So you're lucky!! Congratulations!

I know, I'm very blessed. I hit my 20 something like a week post-op. I will readily admit that 7 of those pounds were put on between my final weigh in (320) and the day of surgery (327) over the course of about 5 days. I ate what I wanted and had a gluttony day with my friends because I had hit my necessary weight on my final weigh in and my weigh in the day of surgery didn't matter.

I lost 20 my first week, too, but I am well aware that is because I started this process more out of shape than the average person. ☹️

Even though its fast now, I expect slow and steady to be my mantra.

Also, like others, I weigh myself daily. It keeps me on track to remember I have a lot more work to do!
