    Speed of weight loss

    it depends on so many factors that it's impossible to tell - age, gender, metabolic rate, starting BMI, whether or not you lost weight prior to surgery, etc. The only thing you really have control over is how committed you are to your program. I was a slow loser, but I almost never went off my program. I lost all my excess weight, but it took around 20 months. the only way I know of to increase your metabolism is strength training. Muscles burn more calories than fat, so the more muscular you are, the more calories you'll burn, even when you're sleeping.

    Weight gain during period

    Don't stress! Its common. The next week you probably will see a loss that corresponds with the gain you had!

    I just got mine done yesterday. I have used the dip exclusively for about the past 2 years. My manicurist just buffs the surface with buffing cream and they stay shiny for 2 weeks. I keep them fairly short due to my job.

    Good list, can be modified for a woman. No boxers / boy shorts instead for comfort, sports bra, I still want that zip up hoodie, t-shirt, sunglasses, lip balm, hair in a high bun, backpack or cute gym bagfor light packing, no jogging shorts, but everything else you said, once I figure out the binder. I need my own pillowcase at least on 1 pillow.

    Four weeks post op RNY

    I had RNY 10/11 surgery weight 211 and I'm 190 now. So about the same as you. I figure the slower it comes off the better chance of keeping off. I'm also hoping it will mean less saggy skin. Keep following the plan. You're doing great!

    Yes I believe there is usually other factors as to why the wls didn't work....

    Sleeve failure??

    Completely agree with everything that's been said. It's all about sticking to your plan. You've done the band so you've made the lifestyle change. Just keep it up and you'll be fine :-)
