Weight loss pattern, what's yours?

Hi everyone.

I'm curious, do you lose weight every week or is it a week of loss, then nothing for a few? For me, I seem to lose very well the first week or so after a fill, then it stops. I don't gain, but I do bounce up and down and can't seem to get past that weight unless I have another fill.

Is that normal? I know I need to get back to a good exercise routine so maybe that'll help give me a more continual loss pattern. I just wondered if I was the only one dealing with this.

Thanks!

Well, I haven't had a fill yet, but I have lost weight every week since my surgery. Although, some weeks I will gain a couple, then lose them plus another 1 or 2 by the end of the week. I have not had a week where I have ended it with a gain, though, and I am happy about that. Especially since I am one week from my fill date, and I can tell I am pretty wide open. I hope I get good restriction with this first fill, so I can go back to "normal". The fact that I can eat bigger portions again is scary to me, because I do have trouble controlling that, hence the band!:nervous

I lose about 5 lbs in 2-3 days, then nothing for a couple of weeks. It's frustrating, but as long as I stay losing 10-12 lbs per month overall, I guess I have no right to complain....

I know it's hard, but try not to worry about it too much as long as the downward trend continues.
