The more you weigh the more you'll lose...so definitely don't compare to everyone on here. But I like to get an idea of where everyone else is also. I'm 4 weeks out and lost 20 pounds as of this morning.

That's not always true because I was considered a lower bmi of 40...its not low but its not high in the sense that it was 50 or more and I lost quite a bit the first 3 weeks out...30lbs. It varies by the individual. I just dont want people with a higher bmi to be upset that they dont lose that fast either

how much weight do u lose during the first month

Im one month post op today im down 29lbs!!

It is kinda true. I know not EVERY single persin that weighs more will lose more...but they tend to lose a lot more in the first month than people that weigh less. Its actually a fact

If its an average (if they tend to do so) its not a fact...its similar to saying people who are younger will have less skin issues than those who are older.

Ok...im not gonna sit here and go back and forth with you. Please DO NOT comment if you are being argumentive. I was simply making a statement and I am not here to argue or be corrected for every little thing I say.

I'm not being argumentative I just dont want others to believe all they hear. I know every individual is different so I dont believe that stuff. .you saying its a fact is the only time I felt I wanted to correct you. I'm not here for arguments either. Sorry.

Is everyone weighing themselves daily? Seems a bit obsessive I'm 5 days post op and feel no need to weigh myself Will let the nurse weigh me at my first post-op visit 6-26. My responsibility as I see it is to follow my Dr andNut instructions the weight loss will follow. Some of you sound tormented by the scale. Just an observation

It is very different for each person. I know that I personally (why I actually stick to a diet lol) am a fast loser. Even when I was a low bmi it came off quick, I just never kept if off :(. NOw my bmi is high, I think it's 50 or 51, so I'm expecting (and hoping!) that it drops just as fast.
