That is fast, but it looks like from your ticker that that was a lot to lose. Are you feeling full from the half cup? Darn, I wish I could bottle some of what you have! If your doc is worried, maybe you need a bit of a defill (although if you're eating okay, maybe not??).

85 pounds in 3 months is a lot but you started at 369. The more you weigh, the faster the pounds fall off so I really don't think it's excessive. I don't look at pounds as much as percentages. You've lost about 23% of your starting weight. (at 3 months, I lost 18%) My opinion is, for what it's worth, as long as you feel good and are healthy, keep doing what you're doing!

Yes if you have a lot to loose; greatly reducing your calories intake will lead to quick weight loss. However you must be able to eat 3 oz solid Protein (weight not volume) and have veggies. If you can not your band is too tight.

has really upped my protein.His worry is so few calories will lead to big problems!My wife chases me around Protein Shakes now. lolThis surgery has saved my life i've been losing a blood pressure med a month the last 2 months.Anorexia nervosa is the term they used with me .Im so scared of failing i get sick from nerves because im so scared of gaining.The problem with losing it fast is you lose vital muscle...I think we have a plan in place to combat this just know more 20lbs weightloss months 8-10 instead.

James...keep up the good work. Follow the rules and it will be difficult for you to fail. Protein is key so that you don't lose muscle mass...which is detrimental to your heart functioning well.

Weightloss should slow the more you lose. I agree 10 pounds a month is more reasonable. Be well!

      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! 😞
