I was just curious how much others lost after 6 weeks.

Well my weigh in at 6wks is tomorrow...have to post again to let you know....so far 41 pounds...lost 15 on the pre-op diet

WOW - I hope for your success - congrats

I had my sleeve May 18, so I'm roughly 2 months out AND minus 50lbs as of today!! I think I'll get myself a present.

I am 6 weeks tomorrow and have lost roughly 33 lbs. I lost about 12 of that on my pre-op diet. I don't known if that is normal or not...

Hi this is my 1st time replyin 2 any1...I usually just read & most of my questions are answered...bt I was sleeved on 7-8-12 & I have only lost 22 lbs....is that normal?

I had lost 58 pounds at my 6 week mark - including 18 that I lost in the week of protein shakes before the surgery.

So I guess this is not normal....my drs. assistant said tht I was doin fine just keep doin what im doin bt honestly I been @ a stall for almost 4wks

I apologize I was sleeved on 6-8-12....CORRECTION...

@twic41

i believe that there isn't a "normal" and that everyone's body is different. that said, maybe you can go back to Protein shakes for a couple days to kind of kick-start the loss again. i'd definately schedule an appointment with the surgeon (not just the assistant) to discuss your options and make sure everything is okay.

I am about 8 weeks out and only down 36lbs. I feel like its going very slow. Is this normal?

Each person is different. I'm 4 Weeks out and only down 22lbs. They say low bmi'ers lose slower. I have a lower bmi so I expected it. The slower you lose the less loose skin you will have that's how I stop myself from getting depressed

What was your starting weight? I was sleeved a day after you. I started at 258 and now I am 244. I've lost 14 lbs in two weeks. I think you are doing fantastic.

I'm at 6-wks today and am down 40-lbs. I was in a stall for 3 weeks but have begun to drop fast in the last several days. Cool beans.

I was sleeved on 6-8 as well and have only lost 22 lbs! I'm feeling the same as you are!

Well I guess I will just keep going with the slow weight loss. I haven't lost any in about a week which has been somewhat discouraging. I work out at the gym 5 days a week and I am hardly eating because I am simply not hungry and forcing myself to eat is just uncomfortable. I am having trouble getting the required protein in because I am not a fan of protein shakes but I will work on that and maybe that will help jumpstart me again.
