I know everyone loses at a different pace but I'm still curious to know how fast or slow everyone is losing.... I'm 3 months post op and only down 23 lbs most of which I lost on my pre op diet.... Since my third fill two days ago I've FINALLY felt some restriction!

Appreciate the feed back and thanks for sharing!!

I am eight weeks and two fills in. The first fill didn't make a difference. I'm feeling restriction with the second one but just got it. So we'll see. I've lost 28 pounds. My doctor says no more than a pound or two a week is good.

I am just about 4 weeks post op and the last time that I weighed in, at 2 weeks, I was down 18 pounds. According to my scale at home I was down 25lbs today but I don't go by anything but the scale at my Dr's office. Next time I go is 4/3, for my first fill.

Did the drs specify how long it should take to lose the majority of the weight?

I have 100 lbs to lose : / I wish I could fast forward to my goal weight .....

well e verybodys different. i ve been banded 3 months also, down 25 lbs, with 5 lbs of that pre-op im thrilled with 25 lbs and so is my dr. i do an hard Water fitness class 3x a week, walk some, and try to eat healthy, but still have my struggles. i had about 10 days of restriction after my 3rd fill, then it went away, so i have a 4th fill next monday. when i did have restriction the weight really started coming off ! hopefully you'll start losing more soon, but you're doing great so far ! Stick with it ! good luck !!

I was banded 2 1/2 yrs ago and lost pretty slowly. The first 4to mths I loast nothing till my 3rddr fill. Then I started dropping 7-8 lbs a mth. In 1the yr I had lost 75 lbs. The 2nd year I lost an additional 28 lbs for a total of 103. The last few mths I've gained a out 6to lbs back but I realized what im doing and ill take the 6first off plus the last couple lbs 8a have to goal of 135.

Good luck to u. PSN I don't have alot of saggy skin because I lost so slowly. Its worth it if u have patience

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
