WHat is everyone's average weight loss? I am 4 weeks post and dont seem to be losing very fast, just wondering if I am being anxious or need to look at things differently.

Thanks!!! But I was under in impression that the more you weigh the more weight you lose.

Interesting question Jen and I don't know the answer. Did your doctor indicate that was the case? I wouldn't be surprised if folks with a higher BMI typically lose more weight over 12 - 18 months than someone with a little lower BMI. But I would be surprised if a higher BMI would also result in a faster weight loss - say on a weekly basis. Hmmmm...

i havent felt hungry since surgery so i dont really mind not eatting anything. still scared to over drink Water or shakes so not to vomit. omg chewable Vitamins are horrible cant wait to be able to swallow a pill

I feel you! I wasn't able to swallow my Multivitamin til 4 months post op

Hope it doesn't take that long.dread taking them. can't wait to be a couple more Weeks out to be totally healed

Im losing so slow :-/

I'm 7 months out and I've lost 94lbs. I started at 252 and I am currently at 156. I think they said I should loose 70% of my exces weight but I hope I loose more lol. I would like to lose another 30lbs but I am really happy with my progress so far.

How tall are you Mel?

So how bad are these scares gonna be

How tall are you Mel?

I'm 5'3 I'm short lol.

My Dr said he figured I would get down to 150. Well I'm 156 so I think he did a pretty good job if estimating that one lol. I hope to keep losing but I pretty happy where I am at now:)

We are just about the same I'm 5'3 at 255. What size jeans were you in before? And now? Too personal I understand just trying to gauge I would also like to shoot for the 130's but what happens happens

At this point I'm an open book so feel free to ask. I was wearing jeans between 20/22. Now I'm wearing size 10! I wear size medium shirts and I've even been shopping at victoria secret lately and can wear a medium in there underwear.

Ahhhh Victoria's secret. I think I will enjoy that more than my bf! I have never shopped there! I am at a tight 20 now. And refusing to go to a 22, lol I refused each size up and bit the bullet but not going to do it. I am hopping to get a date soon!
