This is so frustrating for me right now. I am 3 weeks post op and have only lost 12lbs. And most of that was my first week after surgery. I lost 38 before surgery. I am following my diet and now exercising daily. At what point should I be concerned or consult my nutrition team? Should note, this was a revision RNY which my doctor said I might not have a great weight loss from.

I lost 16 lbs the whole first month, and I started at 373 lbs. Most of us seem to lose around 15-25 lbs the first month, and those are with virgin surgeries, not revisions. And your surgeon is right - revisions tend to be slower - so suffice it to say, your loss is absolutely normal.
