Hi everyone,

Just wondering what everyone lost around the 8 week mark.Dont want to set my expectations too high and generally am interested in everyone lost in that time.

Everyone is different so it's hard to tell. Some people lose a lot, some lose a little. Some have complications, some don't. I will be at my two-months mark next week and have lost 33 pounds since my surgery but have been fortunate enough to have had no complications.

I agree with KimmyTX...everyone is different and our bodies respond differently. I was banded 03.15.10 and at my 8 week mark I had lost over 50lbs; my husband was banded 05.19.20 and he lost slower than me. The key is eat as you are told and exercise! Good luck!

It's been a while since my 2 mo. but I think I lost like 40lbs...but I agree with the others, everyone is different...you can lose more if you exercise...sounds like you have the motivation, I'm sure you'll do well!

Good luck!:unsure:

I'm thinking that an average of 10 lbs per month is a safe, somewhat conservative guess, but you can see that many people responding seem to lose more. If I could lose something like 40 lbs after 2 months, you can bet you'll see me doing the happy butt dance!

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
