70 pounds in 8 months

[klogue 20]

Just wondering if this is an average weight loss....my goal is 100 in a year so I have 30 to go in 4 months! I know I can do it I just need to start exercising haha I have not exercised AT ALL.....I really want to lose 150 total (not in a year) just wondering if people still lose weight after a years period? I have felt so amazing since my weight loss I've gained so much more confidence in myself I can walk without getting tired I LOVE IT! My surgery was may 1 I weighed 310 now I'm at 240 and I'm only 5'1 so I have lots to go still but very excited so far and was like I said just curious if people still kept losing after a year

Its probably above avg! U can expect weight loss to slow down after the first 6 months but don't give up on your goals? You're doing so well!

Oh no.. not giving up I WILL meet my goal of 100 lbs in a year but I need to keep going after that still...

I averaged 10 lbs per month for 22 months for a total loss of 220 lbs. the last 45 lbs took 7 months as it slows way down at the end. It did for me anyway

I was banded on August 8, 2012 and I have lost 68.1 pounds including pre-op and my goal is to lose a 100 pounds by August 8, 2013 or more. I am sticking to a very low carb type diet and I meet with my surgeon every month to adjust my band so I can meet my weight loss goal.

The average weight loss is 1-2 pounds a week so you're doing great. You're right on track.

Weight loss will slow down considerably! I am 15 months post op. I lost 1-2 lbs per week for the first 6 months after that it was like 1-2 a MONTH. I am down 90 lbs so far, and still slowly slowly losing. I walk 40 mins a day, which helps. It is a little dis heartening because you get used to the fast weight loss at the start, then struggle. But if u stay smart and keep fighting, the scale will still go in the right direction.
