How many lbs did u lose in your first week?

First week of pre-op, post-op, first fill?

Post op

Post op

Well, before surgery I weighed 209lbs, after surgery I weighed 216, gained weight after surgery. Now I'm on day 3 and I'm down to 212. I think it's just part of getting the gas out and healing...

Wrong focus point. Everyone loses at a different pace. The lap band is not a guarantee that you will lose, it is a tool. The end game is always in the future. Focus on what you will eat for the next meal.

Your first week post op is not about weight loss, it's about healing. You just had major surgery, you're swollen and need to heal.

Please do not worry about how much weight you've lost, that will come after you have healed.

Best of luck to you.

I didn't lose my first time around until my magic fill 4 months after surgery. I played around with the same 5 lbs until the incremental increases hit the sweet spot. Then I dropped 80 lbs like lightning.

Make sure you have a realistic expectation from the band. I have known many people who fail because their expectations include not respecting the work they still have to do...it's a marathon not a race.

Thank you. Yeah i just gained two lbs but i also just started solids and i cant exercise quite yet. So we will see how it goes

Yet i am not tried these. I will start in these week then measure
