I am almost 4 weeks post op and I am disappointed with my weight loss. I am only losing about 2 pounds per week. I was under the impression from my doctor that it would come off quicker than that. I am only eating very small portions with no snacking and trying to get the water in. How much do you average? Thanks!

I was averaging 8 / week but the last week was more like 2-5. I also had about 140lbs to drop so it's going to come off quicker at first, plus men generally lose quicker from what I see.

As long as it's coming off, that's what matters.

You are about the same starting weight as me. I lost 20# before surgery, and now I am down about 44# since surgery. Total if 65# since I began this journey in Oct. 2012. You are on the lower end of the scale so we don't loose as quickly as someone who weighs much more than you. I am losing only 1/2 to 1# a week. Sometimes nothing for two weeks, but it has still been coming off little by little and no gaining. You also loose inches instead of weight, I am down from an 18 to an 8! I still have 29# to go. It will come off just give it time.

P.S. I am not the best excersizer:)

I am 3 weeks post op and have lost .2 lbs, so... it could be far worse My NUT said it should usually be 3-5lbs per week.

I'm also 3 weeks post op, I've only lost 9 pounds, and have gained the past 2x I've weighed. Im also very disappointed. Averaging 60-70 grams of protein a day, and approx 800 calories, just not too good about getting all my fluids in, but surely that's not why I'm not losing.

I had the Same problems in the beginning . Rating too little or drinking not enough can make you stall. But now i Am 11 months post op And lost 100% of all my excess weight. 146/150 i Am maintaining now. So dont worry.

I meant eating too little haha
