how much weight do u lose during the first month

I am exactly 4 weeks post op and I've lost 10 % of my weight as my doctor said I would in the first month; I've lost a total of 29 pounds!!!

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

I weigh myself once per week...I can't wait for every drs appt because I just had my 2 week and then I wont have another one til the 2 month, 6 month and 1 year.

I've never heard that 10% thing before, but that seems pretty accurate!

At 12 days out I lost 20lbs. Haven't weighed in since then. Everyone loses different and no answer is "normal"

I lost about 20 lbs in the first 2 weeks. Trying not to get on the scale is hard. I was low BMI and have already lost 10% of my body weight! Very proud of myself.

I lost 15 lbs the first month. Almost 8 weeks out and I'm down about 27lbs total now.

I'm five days out and lost about 20lbs since Monday (down from 269 day of surgery to 247 this morning). I started with a low BMI 37.5. I did the surgery to lose type 2 diabetes... So far I'm off the insulin pump and on just metformin. I won't care about the scale as long as the diabetes keeps moving in the right direction

Good luck all!
