How many lbs is everyone losing on average per week...



Recommended Posts

Just curious as to how many pounds everyone is losing on average a week. Go for 2nd fill tomorrow hoping that starts the losing process back up.

When I first got banded I was losing 2 lbs a week steadily. Then about 6 months into it I started losing 2 lbs every other week. Then in November I hit a wall and stayed there for about 6 months and I've lost 10 lbs in the last 6 weeks. So my weight loss while steady at first is now all over the place.

2.6 pounds/week is my average. But it frequently comes off in smaller or larger amounts---bodies are weird.

It depends with me. Right after surgery, I was losing a lot - 4-5 lbs a week, now I'm down to 2 or a little over a week. I'm sure it will get slower the more I lose and the closer I get to my goal. I've heard from numerous people that is the norm.

2.7 lbs/week, but like Betsy said, sometimes it's 5 lbs/week and only 1 lb the next. However, I am certainly not complaining!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
