Hi! I'm new here! I had my surgery on 12/12/12. The first week I dropped 19 pounds...but for some reason I haven't lost anything since then. I'm getting worried!!

I finally at 27 pounds lost! My goal is 30 for my first month....I have until the 12th

I would try to reduce your carbs also. I found that has helped me. I had my surgery a few days before you and lost 14 lbs the first week and then only 2-3 lbs a week until week 4 and now I am down 6 lbs. I have also started doing more that walking now. I am finding when I don't loose many lbs that I am losing inches. I also found lowering my carbs has helped me. Good luck!!

I lost 16 my first month' date=' and then about 10 every month after that until about 7 months out (check my signature - I'm kind of a stickler when it comes to tracking all the info, lol). You are doing absolutely FINE It *will* come off. It *has* too. [/quote']

Who was your surgeon if u don't mind me asking

Did "Aunt Flo" visit yet? I didn't start losing post op until after my period.

Two days after my surgery. I'm down 29 pounds but feel bloated because I'm about to start again. I think I might reach my 30 pound goal!!!! I stay around 500 calories per day and I'm about to start back to my gym. My kids keep me busy anyway lol. My BMI was 38ish before surgery

My first. I lost 31 pounds!

People, we should all know that up to 5 pounds can be due to fluid retention. Just stick with it and you could be losing inches.
