-30 in first month, -45 second month. I'm almost 8 mos out and have lost 100 lbs so far.

Surgery date 12/3/12:

I lost 30 pounds in the first month and 24 pounds in the second month.Starting weight was 233 and current weight is179. 54 pounds down so far :)

I lost 32 in the first month and only 18 the second month due to a 12 day stall! Ugh!! I'm four months out now and down 72 pounds!!

I am 7 months post op. Went to my 6 months appointment. I was 298 day of surgery. Now, I'm 225. But I don't look 228 pounds. When I tell people I want to lose 70 more pounds they all think I'm crazy. I told the nurse that I thought that I should be loosing more. She said I'm doing great. The faster you loose is not so great because of extra skin.My highest 320 now 225 I can't complain. Size 26/28 sometimes 30 and now 14/16. I also notice when I exercise I loose faster. I recommend Biggest Loser DVD'S THE BEST. GOOD LUCK.

Had my surgery exactly a month ago am down 16 lbs. My highest weight was 239.8 surgery weight 229.4

Current weight 213.6 ..my goal is 140:)

Great job on lose of 38 lbs! I had the same worries as you did losing to fast and looking sickly but my surgeon explained ' date=' you will only look sickly if you are just losing fat. However, if you go to the gym and build muscle ( 3-4 times a wk) you will shape up and look healthy. So today im joining planet fitness basiic membership 10 a month. God bless
