10 weeks out,down 50.2 pounds!

I'm happy and proud,but feel like it's not comming off fast enough. I had great restriction post op,but lost that at 3.5 weeks...I got a fill (small one) and it's still not where I need to be. I workout 5 days a week for min. of an hour. Usually 3.5 mph and a varried incline and then bike about 3 miles a day. I think if I'm not down 10 lbs. in the next month Ill request another fill. I am excited though and am starting to see that this is really going to work!:sneaky:

I think you're doing great. I hope mine goes that fast. I am 3½ weeks post opt only down 15 lbs and no fill till next week, but I think I should have lost more.

Hey Alaska Girl! Sounds like you are doing AMAZING!! Way to get in that exercise too. Wow!!

And 50 lbs in 10 weeks is great! That is 5lbs. per week!!!! I was told that if I did everything right I could expect to lose 1-2 lbs. per week.

I was happy with my 40 lbs. in 12 weeks since surgery, but I'm gonna have to work out more to try and catch up with you! :-) Way to go!

Way to go!!! That's amazing progress. I can only hope mine goes away that fast too. I'm two weeks post op and working out an hour a day. I'm down 23 pounds so far...

Thanks for the inspiration!

5 pounds a week is awesome - I'd be a bit afraid to have it go any faster than that. Congrats on your loss!

wow, i think that is great, I hope i can lose 5 pounds a week. I am only two weeks out have little restricition as band was a little Fluid was put into my band when it was put in. No fill until 9/9 as doctor wants my stomach to heal first, he doesnt want me doing anything more than walking, i would like to be working out more, but he wont allow it. Start pureed theis week and mushies next. Well to me it sounds like your doing great, i would be worried if you were losing more than that, i thought it was only 2-3 a week, but i am sure any of us would be greatly happy with 5, just keep doing what your doing, sounds like your on the right track, keep up the good work.
