6weeks out and slow loosing

So im 6 weeks out from surgery and ive only lost 40 lbs! Is this a low weight loss for 6 weeks??? I was hoping to have finally hit 50lbs or over by now. Also my weight keeps shifting between 2 and 3 lbs for the past week, is this normal???

    heck no it's not a slow weight loss for 6 weeks....that's 6.67lbs average a week. You are killin' it! Keep up the good work!

ha ha...I am with Trenya...I don't expect to have lost 40 lbs by 6 weeks...I am hoping to reach 30 lbs by then, but I am at a stall right now for the last couple of days--that is discouraging

At my 1 month post op, I had lost 15 lbs (according to his records... He had my pre-op weight lighter than my scales.... 24 according to mine). He said he wants to see me at 25-30 lbs TOTAL LOST by my 3 month check up. Seriously? I hope I hit that goal by Month 2! You are doing GREAT!

AngelEyez' date=' what's your starting weight?

Sent from my iPad using VST[/quote']

My starting weight was 306.6 and I am now 266.0 as of this morning

Angel Eyez......That is a great weight loss! My surgeon told me average weight loss is 20-30 so 40 is great! Congrats!

good job, nino...I would be happy with that, too! :)

I am almost 7 weeks out and have only lost 26 lbs so 40 lbs is awesome! Keep up the good work!
