How much progress has everyone made? I know we will all lose differently but in three days I will be 4 weeks post op and have lost 27 lbs as of today including my 20 day preop diet. Is that bad???

I've lost about 30 since June19

I have lost 37 lbs. since surgery date June 4th!

That is great! I was sleeved on June 24th and I feel like I haven't lost as much as I should.

I don't think there is a "right" answer to how much you "should" lose. Some people lose faster than others for various reasons. I have lost 37 pounds total since June 3. I lost 22 on pre-op diet, and I have lost 15 since my surgery on June 21 (4 weeks out).

I agree with tesser85. I don't think you can compare numbers. People will lose differently based on their starting BMI, how active they are, if they are male or female, a number of reasons. I think as long as the number is going down, you are going in the right direction. I was sleeved on June 11th, and have lost a total of 46 pounds. 6 of that prior to my pre-op, 15 during my pre-op diet, and 25 since surgery.

That is awesome! Congrats :-)

That is awesome! Congrats :-)

I think the consensus of the respondents is correct...everyone is different...metabolism, BMI, food choices, protein consumption, exercise, etc. will all affect how your body responds. I lost 16 pounds prior to surgery, 6 pounds during 1 week pre-op, and 15 pounds since surgery (June 27). I sometimes think this is a slow process. However, I did not gain the weight in a few weeks, so why would I lose it in a few weeks. The majority of the research indicates 6-12 months for weight loss w/ a common baseline of 6-8 months when people realize they have lost a significant amount of weight.

I've lost 22lbs since my June 21st surgery!!!

Lost 32 lbs. Surgery was june 17. Yay we all lose so differently and there is no right or wrong number I dnt think. Congrats to all my fellaow june sleevers!

:-D

I was sleeved on June 18, I have lost a total of 43 pounds.

I was sleeved on June 18th and I have lost 27 pounds with pre-op diet included. I just went through about 2 weeks where I lost not a pound and in fact gained about 3. When I stepped on the scale yesterday, I had lost those 3 pounds so hopefully I am on the road to losing again. I teach school and I have clothes that for some reason I saved that I want to start back to school wearing but I need to lose about 10 more pounds to get into them. That is my goal for now.

I was sleeved on June 17 and have lost 35lbs. since my surgery. But over the past 5-6 days I've lost nothing.

Has anyone seen an increase in appetite since they have healed? I find myself thinking about food every couple hours. Not that I can take in that much, but the sensuality of food remains. And sometimes it's confusing to tell whether your body is hungry or if your mind is wanting to taste something yummy.

I hope my weightloss starts back up as I begin to add real exercise into my daily routine.

I don't have the desire to eat, but I've been watching a lot of cooking channels nonstop. Also, my weight loss has been at a standstill this week.

Since June 4, I have lost 25 pounds.

My surgery was on June 13, i visited the doc on June 24 and had lost 20 pounds. But i weighed myself yesterday and had lost just one more pound! that was so disappointing. I mean the month long liquid diet and just one pound. I don't know what is wrong. The doc had advised I consume 2 litres of Water everyday. But i have been able to do only 1.2 litres. Is that the reason?

Has anyone else faced this?

Also, what are you eating now?
