Just wondering.... What is the average weigh loss within a month? thank you

1-2lbs a week, I've been on average losing about 8-10lbs a month.

Depends. Like Heather said the expected weight loss is 1-2lbs a week. Sometimes you'll lose more, sometimes less, sometimes nothing at all, and sometimes you'll gain. It's all part of the journey. The closer you get to goal, the less you lose.

I lost 107 pounds in about 10 months- so a touch over 10 pounds a month. The loss wasn't completely consistant. Some weeks I lost more than others, one week I gained a pound. I was hard core with the low fat, low carb. diet and worked out.

If I average my weight loss from surgery to when I reached my initial goal (150lb.) the weight loss was about 1.5lb. a week, or six pounds a month. But as others posted, some weeks were more, some were less. The first six months I only lost about a pound a week, but it picked up after I had several fills and reached a good level restriction. Overall, I ended up losing a bit more during my second year of being banded than my first.

First few months I was averaging over 30 lbs loss each month. Then it slowed down the farther I got from surgery and the closer I got to my goal. But I had a lot of weight to lose. I have lost 220 lbs.

As you can see results vary. My personal experience has been that I lost a lot of weight presurgery (50 lbs in 7.5 months presurgery). After surgery I have been a slow loser averaging 1 pound a week, even though I am very strict about my diet and do an hour of cardio every day. I just have reached restriction, six months out. I think some people start losing faster once they hit restriction. I'm hoping that will be true for me.

I guess the moral of the story is you should prepare yourself that you may be a 1-2 pounds a week person. That way you won't be disappointed if that happens. I see many people on here that are very upset that they are'nt loosing 5 pounds a week.

I agree 1-2 lbs a week. At the very most. This has been my experiance. Im a slow looser.

I agree, it really depends, Ive been a very slow loser, banded May 19, 2010 at 252 and am only down to 204 So don't judge your own success on anyone elses!

I've been averaging 1 lb per week, I am trying to kick it up, and last week I managed 1.4 and I was happy. Ive increased my exercise and started kickboxing, so I hope it comes off quicker. I get so jealous when I see people say they're down 2-5 lbs in 1 week, but I know everyone is different

I have lost 25 pounds since April 28 2010. This isn't a large loss but i am still quite happy.

I am currently at 2.54 per week - that's my cumulative average over the last 7 months since I was banded. But I am an irregular loser, meaning each week is different. I have noticed a slowing lately but as long as we are going down, it's all good

I think it all depends on how much you weighed to start with and how much you need to lose. It has only been 4 months since I started the preop diet and I have lost 75 lbs. I still have a ways to go!
