8 weeks post op

HW 391

PREOP DIET WEIGHT 385

SURGERY DATE 367

TODAY: 327

I guess im losing at alright pace, basically with preop diet its 60 pounds in 10 weeks. Always like to have more, but i guess beggers cant be choosey. No issues whatsoever, never had pain, no reflux or gas...was crazy easy. Can drink whatever i want and eat whatever i want...i have stuck to my diet, but know that eating is/will be easy...no cravings whatsoever and i dont see it being a problem sticking to it...

What do you think? Am i on a good pace or am is slow loser?

Sounds great to me!!! Are you exercising too? I ask because I am about 2 weeks out and haven't started exercising yet... I am "moving", but not hitting the treadmill yet... just wondering if and when you started!

Keep up the good work!

A 40 lbs. since surgery itself in 2 months is great....I'd say anything over 3 lbs. a week average is great. And just remember, even if you do lose slower than you'd like, it's less loose skin you'll have at the end because it'll have more time to catch up so to speak. Good luck and keep it up.

Keep it up

Good Job, Congratulations. I feel that getting more energy and feeling healthier is more important then the numbers on the scale so how fast the numbers go down isn't that important in my opinion.

I'd say that's crazy fast! I can only hope mine will drop that fast. I was sleeved 12-31 and have lost 21. I, too, had no complications and have been able to tolerate all food and liquids. I can't believe how easy my recovery was!

You are losing at a fantastic pace for you!! Don't worry about what anyone else is doing. You will lose the weight, at YOUR pace. Congrats on your weight loss so far, it is phenomenal!! :rolleyes:

Thanks guys! As usual you are all the best. I started working out about 2 weeks ago, just doing the circuit at the gym and light cardio. But gonna up it soon. Its a fun ride for sure.
