kimmyv 0 Posted October 14, 2008 I lost 10lbs but am up 2lbs now---Surgery was 9/15. But I am on solid food now and am trying to keep things on track so I don't gain anymore. My first fill is tomorrow and I am totally ready for it!!! Time for some serious exersize too! But I am a low bmi'r and am not anticipating (or getting my hopes up) for huge losses at one time.....

MSG's_SGM 0 Posted October 14, 2008 I lost 18 lbs on the pre-op diet and then lost 10 lbs the first week after surgery, and 4 lbs. the next week (total of 32 lbs two weeks before to two weeks after). It has been all up hill from there. I am thinner and healthier than I have been in 15 years, so if it takes a while it will be ok. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maranda 0 Posted October 14, 2008 Tommorow will be my 2wk mark I wieghed myself yesterday and I am 18lbs down. I had no preop diet to follow. Since then it has been a smooth ride with no problems..

NoMoreFatMelissa 0 Posted December 4, 2008 I was banded Nov. 24th so today will be 10 days post-op. As of this morning I've lost 12 lbs. Two days ago (according to the scale) I was two lbs lighter...but I blame the weight gain on Aunt Flow. Once she's outta town those two lbs in Water weight will be gone, too.

Vangirl 0 Posted December 5, 2008 Today is day 9, and sadly I have only lost 1 lb post op. Reading the vast majority of people here have lost a lot more than that, it's frustrating to see such slow progress, particularly as I didn't cheat at all on my pre-op or post-op. I was slow in my pre-op weight loss also. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RestlessMonkey 7 Posted December 5, 2008 Today is day 9, and sadly I have only lost 1 lb post op. Reading the vast majority of people here have lost a lot more than that, it's frustrating to see such slow progress, particularly as I didn't cheat at all on my pre-op or post-op. I was slow in my pre-op weight loss also. Vangirl hang in there! It's a process. I haven't lost ANY more since my preop and the 2 weeks of liquids post op, and it's been 3 months for me. My doctor isn't fazed in the slightest and he says I will start losing at around 6 months...I don't even have any restriction yet. I just figure if I'd wanted to drop 60 pounds in 3 months I could've gotten bypass surgery. Yay for those who do drop lot really fast, but it's not a race, and I figure I'll get there eventually!

LSF 264 Posted December 5, 2008 I lost 11 pounds post-op. I'm not expecting a fast weight loss because the "mushies" have alot of carbs which always make it difficult for me to lose weight. I start adding soft food this weekend so as I eat more Protein, I'm hoping to see more results. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
